Bio Sketch
Rachel
Sutcliffe had suffered from a serious immune disorder for over 16
years; throughout this time writing had been her therapy, and it kept her
from going insane! She was an active member of the British Haiku Society
and has been published in various journals including Prune Juice, Failed Haiku and Hedgerow.
The juxtaposition of/contrast between fallen apple and bruise is visually and emotionally poignant, and the use of "another" adds extra emotional weight to the haiku.
