A slim collection of quietly effective haiku spanning the four seasons. Here are two examples, from the summer and winter:

 
         the leaves are turning
                        and I'm carrying my sweater —
         summer lingers.
 
         peeing after sex —
         outside, cars slosh past
         through melting snow

reviewer: Alan Hardy.
