Haiku From the Left Brain

This is haiku poetry from an engineer's perspective. Get this little book for a left-brained, non-sentimental look at the natural world in a series of seventeen-syllable observations. The author wrote these poems about rodents, sunburn, engineers, and other things we often don't pause long enough to really see clearly. Haiku is structured and focused, the perfect format for the occasional engineer-poet.
Those of us trained in science and technology are not known for indulging in poetry. Haiku, however, is a rigid structure an engineer can admire. Engineers live in the world of physics and math. Naturally our poetry (what little exists) tends to be concrete rather than sentimental or fanciful.
