Workplace haiku II

Thank you FT for choosing my haiku as your winning poem in your Workplace Haiku Competition this week, theme: the commute.

Monday morning

we share

each other's rain

“This could be read as a grouse,” notes our judge Jim Kacian, “But the words contain more: the poet chooses not to be isolated in that rain, but to share it and when we all share it, it is no longer the elements against us, but rather the elements uniting us in a common lot and a common fate.”
