Origami Birds And Haiku
(5 of 5) (3514 views)

./Burning_Man_Decompression_20141012_150902_C14_8138.jpg

Two origami birds were stuck to the cork along with several haiku, only two of which were clearly visible:

Never So Alive
It is all temporary
Today you are free

Oh the sun rises
Purple pink over Temple
Pop more champagne now.
