Lamentation Twenty Five

A Haiku in Passing


Two cars crash head-on
in the passing place. Too much
courtesy can kill.


Tess Kincaid's prompt this week invites disaster. (Mag 183 is here.)

  5. This maintains your usual standard and the central idea is so dismal that I have used it in my own Mag. Thank you.

  9. "The Fifth Horseman" has been included in the Sites To See for this week. Be assured that I hope this helps to point many new visitors in your direction.

I welcome your comments, the gloomier the better. I don't think there's much hope, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in what you have to say. If you expect me to approve your comment before it appears, you're about to be disappointed. Never have understood why some hypersensitive bloggers need to see what others say before they allow the comment. Poor, sensitive wee souls.
