moon’s shadow draws
indistinct lines upon earth ~
imaginary
moon can cause madness
then I’m sad and depressed ~
soon I may not be
if no moon in sky ~
complaining about it may
end all our lives
Author notes
I count 35 words, exactly, in this Haiku chain (even though, properly, it is probably a Senryu chain) -- the chain is a bit esoteric and crazy, but the full moon can make me like this!
