**Please note, this book contains mature content and is intended for adults only. ** 17 Syllables of Poetic Ammo is a collection of over 350 haiku, each loaded with an imperfect pen. Every poem captures the balance between Kim's entendres and her bold, unapologetic revelations, delving deep into themes of intimacy, desire, and the raw complexity of human connections. You'll find all the haiku from the book Brooklyn Flavored Haiku here, along with over 100 extra haiku that explore more mature themes. Through this bold lens, Kim invites readers to confront the unspoken aspects of their relationships, embracing both their deepest fears and their deepest joys. The haiku in this collection freeze moments in time-capturing the essence of fleeting experiences, from the lightest touch of a lover's hand to an unforgettable breakup. They highlight the quiet, yet profound details often ignored in the rush of everyday life, forcing us to look closer at the fragments of connection that make us who we are. These poems act as mirrors, reflecting unhealed wounds, buried truths, and pockets of untapped joy-both tender and fierce. Each haiku's carefully crafted 5-7-5 structure offers a window into the moments that define our lives, showing that beauty is often found in the most overlooked corners of our existence. Whether capturing the intensity of desire or the sweetness of a fleeting moment, these haiku provide a raw, unapologetic look at what it means to be human. **Please note, this book contains mature content and is intended for adult readers. ** Perfect for those who savor unique haiku, spoken word, and the power of language, 17 Syllables of Poetic Ammo is a journey into the depths of human emotion-intimate, honest, and unapologetically real.
