Heeding Haiku with HA “Duality”

Fallen Apples

Brooke Shaden

I believe it’s friction that begets life both in the mechanical and metaphysical sense. Friction is necessary for evolution and growth that’s why this week I am asking you to focus on duality.

  9. Intriguing prompt, Yves. Thanks for posting the prompt this week. I had quite a messy week and it was only on Friday when I realized that I had not written a draft post for the prompt. My bad!
