Haiku for May 23rd: Ice Hard Sharp

Slips sun, ice hard sharp.

Blunt thoughts slices sour thoughts-- is

gone.  Ice.  The flash pines.

This is one of those where the decisions I make on formatting can really change the reading of the haiku.  Is it "Slips sun, ice-hard sharp," or rather "Slips sun-ice, hard sharp"?

Some other formatting options could be:

Slips sun ice hard, sharp

blunt thoughts. Slices sour thoughts is--

Gone ice. The flash. Pines.

Or maybe:

 

Slips. Sun ice hard. Sharp.

Blunt. Thoughts slices sour. Thoughts is

gone. Ice the flash pines.

Poesytron has no "intention" when it creates.  In formatting its haiku for you, the reader, I am another author--or a translator, maybe, an intermediary force that shapes the poem and influences the meaning ascribed by your mind.

I am sure this intermediary step could also be automated, but I am in no way ready to tackle that computing challenge.
