Ink drowns in tech,

Handwriting faded into mist

Screens replace pages.


The author's comments:

I wrote this haiku as a reflection on the impact of technology on our daily lives, especially how we are becoming so dependent on screens and digital devices that we are losing touch with traditional ways of expressing ourselves, like handwriting. As someone who takes pride in handwriting skills like calligraphy and lettering, I hope this haiku will remind people to remember, appreciate, cherish, and consider the value of traditional ways of self-expression and communication.
