Pins and Needles


Needles and
pins:
pure tingleness

I’ve been inspired to post this β€˜piku’ after reading Tilly Bud’s latest post this morning. Then I was inspired to create a piece of abstract art to go along with it. Pins and needles… we’ve all been there at some point.

A β€˜piku’ is a haiku mixed with the first few digits of pi (3.14), and the aim is to get the message across in the eight syllables (3-1-4!).

I also got to create a new word, which is always good!

I’m slowly – ever so slowly – trying to get back to blogging, but felt an uncontrollable urge to post today, so this is it! Over the next few weeks, I should imagine, my posting schedule will increase. For now, however, posts will appear at a more sporadic pace.

See you again soon.

    I love this, Tom; and the art – AND you created a neologism as well! That’s a massive amount of inspiration from the original 8 syllables. I feel like I could retire πŸ™‚
