Hey! It was very convenient and I didn't felt like writing in a contemporary format while still keeping the style I've been toying with. Anywho, wanted to play off the Japanese-styled setting while suggesting that he or a friend of his wrote a poem (with the format of haikus) on the matter. And so started off a fun evening of writing haiku stanzas that linked with each other, having fun not only with a 5-7-5 format but hitting (successfully) the 500-word limit. I honestly had to add necessary fluff as I noticed I finally reached where I wanted to be. But what you see here, except at the very end, was completely first-draft and out-n-published as soon as I hit the 500-word limit. (I probably should mention in congruence to combining the haiku format with my style while abiding to a 500-word limit, I wanted to keep going the dialectical theme in the prompt of which I emphasized that through my style and the vast breath the haiku format has for both Metaphysical and Dialectical poetry.)

That's awesome. For this round going to borrow this idea as I think your right that it adds to the setting of the story.
