Note: I found out about this particular concept with the number 37, and I had to use it for my series of haikus on politics. I believe that finding work can be a political act, as can the decisions made by the ones hiring and deciding who gets to step ahead.

Thirty (one) and Neither Flirty nor Thriving.
I'm thirty-one and orbiting the same few mistakes like they're landmarks. London is already awake before I am (or before I've slept) - sirens somewhere far enough to ignore, buses sighing at stops, people moving with purpose I can't quite borrow. I lie there for a bit, tasting last night at the back of my throat, trying to remember if I meant to drink that much or if it just...happened again.

I’ve watched the video you included, Kendall. It’s so cool, and the haiku as well.
