Guest Post: walking, by Charlotte Digregorio

Note from Amelia: Today is International Haiku Poetry Day! An early part of the apparitions project involved collecting the poetry and photography of other talented writers and artists to share as part of a greater anthology. This component of the project didn't quite come together for many reasons, but I wanted to share the finest work Jonathan and I received as part of our celebration of the book's publication and this incredible year of poetry. I'm sharing this spring and summer series alphabetically by last name. Today is a fitting day to share "walking," by Charlotte Digregorio, my haiku mentor and one of the book's editors:

walking
through darkness...
