Adulthood
We like to pretend
we’re grown up, but we’re really
just kids underneath.
Childhood
Crouch beside the door
A restless shadow. You’ll hear
what you need to hear.
These are excerpts from Life: A Definition of Terms, a book of haiku poetry. For more of Rachel’s poems, visit her Reader Library page, where you can get a couple of volumes for free.
