“Poetry is about the intensity at the centre of life…” Anne Rouse
Even though it wasn't written for it, I like this quote to describe haiku. A haiku is about the ordinary moment bored through. Not bored from the word boring, but bored to the center of things, that long squiggly drill going deep, deep under the sea (similar to what James Cameron just did in his new submersible) or under the earth not bringing up rare minerals but the very essence of life.
Goals to be worked toward not reached.
