Tetsushi Higashino and Stefan Klein have been collecting Haikus they overheard by chance in public space while waiting for the bus, walking past a crowd of people or sitting in a busy cafe. These accidental poems where then passed on to the visitor in an intimate moment by being whispered in their ears when ordering a tea at the galleries cafe during an exhibition at the Art Center Ongoing in Tokio.

This publication picks up the notion of a fleeting moment in the form of various postcards that can be kept intact or used to send by mail.
