The tumblr heroes haiku


We were tumblr he-
roes for a while, racking up
shitloads of little red hearts.


– Leonard Blumfeld (© 2016)

Note
To misquote John Lennon, “a cyber class hero is something to be”. Would be a true haiku syllablewise if the “little” were taken out, but it sounds much better this way, don’t you think?
