    The addition of he phoenix is so clever it complements the final line. As a proper Haiku should. Contender …winner

  • Oooo, that last line was so powerful and clearly implies rebirth and the existence of birth and death as a cycle!

    Very nice! The last line was also great because it's true.

    "Death is just for now" is a killer line, LC.
