I like this one a lot. I remember Bjorn used to do Ameican sentences, in italics, with his haibun. They fit very well, like yours would there, with a paragraph of pros.

I love this form, your short 17 syllables give us more to think about than many poems of 17 or more lines. Love, that great unreasonable reason.
