Unknown Origins: Haiku

I have a lot of "art" in me. I have a lot of "creativity" in me. This next song, also written while in high school, shows off that aspect of "art" and "creativity" that borders on the "what?" and "huh?" and "man, you're weird." I like it! It's called Haiku because it's written in three parts, like the three lines of a haiku, the second part being longer than the first and third. I also used irregular time signatures to represent the odd-count syllabic structure of a haiku. Inspired by Leonard Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, Ladies and Gentlemen: Haiku.
