The exercise: Write two haiku about: the real estate agent. I haven't forgotten about the yearlong prompt. Okay, I totally did. But then I remembered! So we'll get back to that tomorrow.
I thought you'd been planning what you were going to do in the prompt; though I'd have reminded you next week if you still hadn't mentioned it. There's a lot to try and conclude in these last two months.
The real estate agent Selling dreams, he's an Unreal estate agent. Buy Clouds and castles here!
Keep looking; these are Expensive. Something much more Rundown would be great....
I see you put your own acrostic in this time! Nice :) I think I like your second better this week for its subtle allusions and the reference to an ancient god; it feels a lot more haiku-like that some of ours sometimes end up. I will wait for you on the Dream Kingdom I think; I worry that I write too much anyway and drag the story in my own direction!
Greg - yeah, that's fair. I'll try to work something out this weekend so that I'm not holding things up too long.
Oh, in response to another comment you made: I strained a rib muscle by coughing too hard on Sunday. So every time I cough now it's like being stabbed, which is fun. Thankfully my cough is finally nearing the end of its run.

Here's a couple of my own. The haiku prompts are proving difficult to pass up.
Mine:
Real estate or fake
Estate, he can sell almost
Anything to you
