Maikro collects 112 haiku and 47 works of micro-fiction, most falling in the speculative fiction realm (science fiction, fantasy, horror) with a few literary pieces tossed into the mix:
slick sea stones glimmer
golden leviathan sinks
night soars on gulls' wings
wise elder wordsmyth
telling tales of earth that was
blue skies in our minds
Fallen Angel:
Leathery wings tangled, she falls from heaven's love-making, crashes to Times Square. Rises from the crater. Smiles at the morning after.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this anthology. But I took a shot and I'm glad I did. It was a fun break from a normal narrative but was still easier to digest than philosophical poetry.
Sarah Jones reads with a beautiful voice.

The narration/production is not for me - first of all, there are a lot of mouth noises. If you like ASMR you’d enjoy this.
Secondly, some of the haikus seem patched together with very inconsistent production quality switching within seconds (lots of white noise, little white noise, varying volume, harsh s sounds, obviously softened s sounds - all in all inconsistent even within a single chapter).
As for the performance, I miss the connection to the content and its meaning. It feels just read. Especially the haikus all sound pretty much alike in melody - the narrator’s voice is lovely and ethereal, yes, but doesn’t convey any mood beyond etherealness. Happy/sad/curious/insightful/… - not sure.
Now, if you enjoy a short audio with bits of poetry and a very ethereal, almost dream like voice (and some ASMR) - this is for you.
I like the content a lot though, so I’ll get the ebook :)
Lovely collection of haikus and micro stories, with an okay performance
