checkers in the park… an acorn cap fit for a king

Issue 24.2 | 22 October 2024
Lovely haiku. Lovely to read multiple times. Quietly brilliant!
I thought I’d written something about chess, as I used to play it, and even visited Bobby Fischer centre in Iceland.
Here’s a park haiku instead:
curling up at dusk the park bench sleeper turns over a new page

Delightful!
