“Haiku News is a weekly poetry journal which publishes socially engaged haiku, senryu, tanka and kyoka, pairing each poem with a news article to forge links between the poetic, the personal and the political.”

.
I paired the following article from The Independent newspaper “Teen spirit: What’s it really like to be a teenager?”
with the follwoing haiku:

eating rhubarb
faster than it grows
young love
