Celeste G.: A Day in the Life
Agent Celeste takes us through a typical day at her school in McAllen, TX, and her reasons for doing a Guerilla Haiku program in her community: My alarm beeps to wake me up in the morning and I lazily shut it off.

The Haiku Mistress
Actor and educator, Caley Vickerman, discovered haiku in 6th grade and they remain to this day a favorite method of expression; simple, precise and immeasurably powerful. It became her fervent wish to create events that celebrated haiku (and humanity). Thus the Guerilla Haiku Movement was born! …And the Haiku Mistress gratefully continues to celebrate!
