I really like the poems I've read of yours so far. They are short and simplistic, but you choose your words very carefully, so each word is impactful and important. I love this one so much, especially as a self-proclaimed grammar nazi. The comparison of parentheses to crescent moons is lovely. What a well-executed haiku.
