I am fascinated by the human mind. I am in awe of its capacity to inflict seasons of joy and sorrow.
The influencing come from a deeper whole, but manifest themselves in snippets. Micropoetry and microfiction are the perfect formats to capture those snippets. It does not need a plot, characterization and the interaction of those characters to weave a story.
The micro-formats capture a moment, and these moments constitute life. Tony Robbins puts it succinctly, when he says, “It is in the moments of decision, that destiny is shaped.”

I agree that it comes from a deeper whole but the manifestation is in snippets. I also agree that our choices make our destiny.

I love the act of distillation in poetry too, Reena. It’s those moments, the “right now,” that add up to a lifetime. Your metaphor of micro-writing as droplets of water is perfect.

You’re haiku is perfect for expressing the idea that tiny little things make bigger whole, even when we only catch a glimpse of one or two. Beautiful, I can’t stop thinking about it!
