The Connector

The Writer’s Corner features poetry, essays, short stories, satire and various fiction and non-fiction from SCAD Atlanta students.  This quarter we are starting a weekly haiku series. Haiku is a type of Japanese poetry with 17 syllables separated into three lines with each line having five, seven and five syllables respectively. It speaks a lot in the fewest possible words. To submit your own work for the Writer’s Corner, email features@scadconnector.com.

 

 

 

 

Weekly Haiku No. 3 by Paulomi Mukherjee

New Normal 

Breathe in, sit down, calm

Don’t fight back, it’s not worth it. 

Adapt, because there’s no other way 

 

Don’t hold on, it hurts 

Dont be afraid of the new 

It might be better 

 

Let go hon, be free 

Find a new normal for you 

I promise, it’s peace.

Hi! I'm an Animation student at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I write for the SCAD Connector as features editor! Writing, like drawing has always been a passion of mine. It helps me vocalise things that are otherwise harder to say or share. Feel free to reach out to me through Facebook or Email if there is something you want to share or think needs to be said on The SCAD Connector!
