I am quite a 侘寂 (not to say 'grungey') person, and aiming to be more so, so that I can fully accept this hideously-beautiful, randomly-tragically dream-like existence (beyond either blame or ambition on the planet of pain) as I might accept (nay, marvel at!) a firefly at Chernobyl...or the power and complexity of a mosquito's saliva...or the gorgeous bitterness of an absinthe leaf.
Ahhhh, the wabi/sabi of this haiku--very beautiful.
