calm winter night
city lights dim
under falling snow

		by Sarah Bassill
		Midwest Living, Dec 2005

"While being quite intelligible, the haiku means nothing, and it is by this double condition that it seems open to meaning in a particularly available, serviceable way—the way of a polite host who lets you make yourself at home with all your preferences, your values, your symbols intact…" —Roland Barthes, Empire of Signs
