Haiku | Peter Washington

Phone scrolling at urinal
Spotting hipsters in the wild
Nerds or ephemeral
#haikuaday

vivastory *Inspired by spotting a level 7 hipster at a urinal, one hand on his hip and the other effortlessly scrolling through his phone. What struck me was when I left the bathroom the entire place had been invaded by hipsters. (edited) 2d

Meh

so-so

I have read very few haikus in my life, so I thought I‘d get more acquainted with them in my favorite poetry series. And it‘s National Poetry Month! For the most part, the poems didn‘t resonate with me but there were a handful of gems that painted a picture or mood for me in that short format.
