In my poem, Sinuous Pareidolia (https://vocal.media/poets/sinuous-pareidolia), I tried to use the spaces between words to make vertical snakes down the poem. Unfortunately, Vocal formatting kept removing the spaces and I had to put |'s unstead. You haiku here made me think of it. But yours is on so many other conjectural levels. Well done.
I read somewhere that we tend to hallucinate by looking at the symbols of the flattened corpses of dead trees. Lol. Loved your Haiku!
Nice. Clever. Interesting....and thoughtful.
Well done!
Nice...
It was! It did! WHAT IS THIS SORCERY
