cold winter morning

there, under clucking feathers,

I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me. Some of my fiction might have provoked divorce proceedings in another state.😈

    I adore this haiku, Harper. It just so happens my landlord lives across the street and has chickens. This is a little odd since we live in the city, but our street is a quiet one and feels like country living.
