Elderly Woman Behind the Table in a Large Town
The glass of Absinthe sat before me. It’s quite amazing how despite such terror rendered upon their stones in the preceding decades, these streets still held the beauty I first read about as a girl. I never dreamed I’d set foot on these cobbles, at least not safely.

Hmmm... It's not the usual 3 lined 5, 7, 5 haiku. Yet, it still has 17 syllables. Personally I wouldn't classify it as a haiku, but it makes sense as other haikus have been pushing the boundaries of removing syllables from one line to add them to another. Yet, adding another line entirely makes it feel like it's own sub-genre away from the traditional haiku. In all honesty, this might be what Vocal was trying to consider to be a quad-ku. Also, if You didn't make the video, add the proper credits to the YouTube video that You used as Your thumbnail. It always drives me crazy when people don't do that. Somebody put a lot of hard work into making that video.
