Haiku (about fountain pens)


Misfit

Recommended Posts

Only partially mistaken, I seem to remember Kaweco switched to Jowo some time ago. Maybe yours was NOS.

If you are to be ephemeral, leave a good scent.

Very good @txomsy- I love the double entendre!

 

@A Smug Dill, I am saddened to hear that.

 

@mhgudaQuite meta for this thread! ;)

 

I don't know if a haiku pair is a thing.  If isn't, consider this two.

I very much like this one, especially the first one. I truly do. Yet,

Still, I think you made that point in the second Haiku. Just had to try a reply. I get tired of using one syllable words.

It is a Benu in a model that posts.  It glows in the dark, which is very cool.  In spite of all it's beauty it is not my favorite in hand.  I did get the nib done in a custom RNI grind by Mark Bacas since it is a "special" pen.

 

My dog is a greyhound.  I think all dogs tell time by their sense of smell; I discovered this when trying to figure out how she knew what dinner time was when the sun changed it's position every day, we don't eat at exactly the same time every day, etc.

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.
