For the most part, almost all of the haiku and tanka I have written are based on actual experiences, situations without embellishments or fictions added. In this case, it is based on a close relative, slightly younger than myself, who has led a difficult, dramatic life. A story somewhat cut from a Faulkner novel.
So much told in so few words. For me this touches deep.
