    I think your haiku are great. SO . . . .

    I'm affiliated with a new National Pain organization that is not up on the web yet. (I'm not paid!)
    With permission I would like to send them your Pain Haiku as they are interested in using creative expressions in promos and/or the site itself. However, I need written permission.
    If you give permission send me an e-mail at judithwesterfield@gmail.com with a cut-n-paste of the haiku you are giving permission for and whether you want your name attached or want to remain anonymous.

    Thanks, Judith

      Hello there Hazel !

      Thank you. This time I decided to be irreverent with a very serious theme. As also, play with words :) All posts pertaining to this clue, are serious, aren't they?

    "Pain... so hard to digest..."
    Very aptly put my dearest Prem..
    Even numbness is a state of sensation that we know exists but can not define.. Painful truth..

    a very different take on prompt and very playful with words, crush in numbness to crushing numbness. I enjoyed reading it.
