  1. This haiku makes me think of an important concept in ecology called a “sink.” A sink is the “final resting place” of any product and byproduct created by human beings–everything from the dead jeans you mentioned to the hydrocarbons “sunk” in the atmosphere. Interesting how this poem juxtaposes the deer and the jeans. A very fresh poem, though admittedly a sad one, too. Nice to see that you’re enjoying Seeds.

  2. thought provoking, thanks for sharing you rock.

  3. Interesting to put dead deer and dead jeans together… so stark in contrast… liked it.

    Thanks for joining in the Poetry Potluck WK 43 which I am hosting for the first time… hope you have liked it too…. and wish to see you again…
