One Potato Review

Try to get past the title here. “A good haiku can pack a punch,” says the author in his afterword, but the form is really incidental to these ruminations, which are also nominally organized around the seasons. And they’re not just for guys:

“Pine tree invites me
to climb him up to the sky.
How can I refuse?”

The best part about
kicking this stone home from school
is there are no rules.”

Simple and joyous, with illustrations by Peter Reynolds (Ish, The Dot) at his anecdotal best.
