Author Notes
Haiku Club entry

Wabi-sabi - in Japan, broken objects are often repaired with gold. The flaw is seen as a unique piece of the object's history, which adds to its beauty. Consider this when you feel broken. It is a world view centered on the acceptance of imperfection. It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teachings.
