Topic: Haiku



Never evident
Yet, they linger the longest
Causing great distress.

wow. This was excellent. You know, I've often found it
confusing, that we are given time to get over physical
wounds...made to even. Yet, when inflicted with a mental
wound, we are told to "just get over it". Perhaps that is
part of the reason they take so long to heal. They are just
ignored. *sigh* When a haiku can have me profoundly
pondering, then you've done an exceptional job.


Excellent post!! -- Achelois
