sadly, a cropped sentence. sadly, this statement, seemingly self-contradictory, as lnh puts it, is recognizable, however, it is not a haiku; as marjo, instantaneously confirms the scene. a summary of a model’s job does not a haiku make, as peter exclaims.
the piece reads nicely, yet, all pieces are not a haiku.
i will not attempt a remake, unless at a later date i am drawn back into this piece, by others.
I like. Nice encapsulation of a paradox.

Excellent! Superb summary of a life models job!
