    This one-sentence, not-in/for-the-moment ichibutsu shitate flows smoothly and its image is concrete and evocative.

    Note: for info. about ichibutsu shitate, see my "To the Lighthouse" post, "Ichibutsu Shitate (One-Image/Object/Topic Haiku)," which can be accessed at http://neverendingstoryhaikutanka.blogspot.ca/2015/01/to-lighthouse-ichibutsu-shitate-one.html
