PACE Global Haiku • Spring 2007 Dr. Randy Brooks

Lorin Glazer

pink and black by Lorin Glazer The title “They know me by pink and black” of this collection is a very personal and meaningful. I am known to love pink and black, many people know that. Everything I own is mainly all black, pink or both. People can see this because it’s on the outside. You can physically see the love I have for these colors. This is similar when it comes to my personality as well. At Millikin, people mainly know me by externals. I generally don’t let fellow classmates get to know me in a deeper sense. These haiku come from with in, as well as from my personal experiences. It gives the reader a taste of what I am really like on the inside, as well as what I care about and carish in my life. Enjoy

scared he runs beside me I learn to ride

warm licks on my face puppy love

another tipsy night bar smoke in her hair walk of shame
