  1. Evocative of the barbs and stings of outrageous fortune. They are unlikely to injure seriously but enough to put you off.

  2. I always appreciate this author entering the world of socio-economic dynamics, social injustice, and business or political ethics, or lack therein:

    end of the
    corporate ladder
    autumn thistle

    —LAURENCE STACEY

    A haiku, it has a seasonal reference, that is not just natural history, but an allusion to people bent on careers that are only self-serving, and only that while in employment. It can be an empty success once retired, or made to retire.

    The autumn thistle is a thing of beauty, but it has its brittle nature, its dryness, too.

    A wonderfully deep haiku full of layers and sadness.

    warm regards,

    Alan
