Great volcabulary... describing things just in one word... excellent work...

Never been much of a fan of haikus but I like this one, it's simple but strong, I like that you went with big words rather than small ones, they show a wider vocabulary and a great depth that could be explored from this piece (not even sure if that makes sense, oh well).

hm...exactly how i feel about totalitarianism (i had to study BRAVE NEW WORLD at school and totalitarianism was one of the things we had to know about...*shudder*)

Cool Haiku! I liked it!

lol, yet again i had to use my ol faith online dictionary to get the meaning of 'Asphyxiating' i continue to be terrible,a dn ill say it again, your vocab is amazing.
this haiku was wonderful, and as i saw the world 'totalitarians' i thought Stalin. perfect haiku for describing the powerless and the opressed, absoultely perfect...especailyl if one can be reminded of one specific incident when reading it. amazing how you conveyed so much in 5 words...5 WORDS!
*staggers*
wow, kudos.
P:S - thanks for the review, and also i was surprised when i read it, because you mentioned Dm - i was keeping that in mind while writing it, slow piano in the key of Dm. glad someone clicked to the mood, hehe.

Shortest (number of characters) haiku I've seen in a while. But then, I haven't seen many haikus...

o- pretty, I like. I have officially added 'asphyxiating' to my vocabulary.
It is a very interesting haiku, different. So few words explaining an amazingly amount for such a shallow (as in 'in depth', [not as in flaky]).
Haiku- a wonderful expression in so few words.
always till the end,
