“To Haiku'm It May Concern: Living Your Best Life Even when Mercury is in Retrograde” by Harvey Fitz

Thanks ???? to amazing nonfiction and poetry writer Saeed Jones, one of the trio from a favorite podcast “Vibe Check”, I am making more space for poetry in my reading.

There are four sections: Live, Love, Laugh, Repeat. It’s incredible to have a DMV Black millennial accounting of life through Haiku.

Here’s a few to share:

“”Stop letting people

who forfeit their dreams project

their fears into you””

“”Direction is more

important than speed so stop

going nowhere fast””

“”What do you call an

ex from the state

Maryland? an old bae get it?””

Recommendation: whimsy is my word for the year, and this book epitomizes it. ??
