I love your work. It is quite interesting and captivating BUT, the message would have better been conveyed using both pictures and write-up.

As I told you on the other post, this is haiku. Poetry in general relies on words, not pictures. Pictures, in fact, often ruin the poetry as they give you a set image instead of a fluid one. In haiku especially, the image should come from the reader, not the author. I do usually pick out a woodblock print to illustrate something that the haiku may suggest, but I don't want to be more specific than that.
