How profoundly I know this one...excellent Senryu.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you, I am really liking this format to challenge my tendency to over embellish

[Frieda P]

Me too, I find it's the only time i can write within any type of parameters...

The scar remains as well. This was great KLGoode. So to the point and exact.

Thanks. I have grown fond of the senryu, it challenges us verbose people to get it done already.:)

Yes it can, and depending on the wound it can last a life time.
Very well done KL xo

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks so much. I appreciate it.

[ron]

You are most welcome xo

[Madalyn Beck]

You are so profound when it comes to telling it like it is. Great job! :)

[Lyn Anderson]

Bowing :) thanks I like being profound.:)

This speaks the truth. The succinctness of the poem belies the message. The sting does stay...and it creeps in between the lines of so many poems we right. Lydi**

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks so much, and I am glad you picked up on that. It needed to be short and to the point so it would sting longer.:)

so powerful these truthful and clever words...love the shortness..like a small bandage...and the cut is begging for air...the pain wants to be expressed.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks I really do appreciate your stopping by. I had nearly a week there where I was stuck in Java hell on this site. It suddenly resolved itself.

Go on! Be done with it!
5 mins from I'll be like... "What hurt? Please... So over it!"
Love it.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks, yep, and yep, and no:)

2 out of 3 ain't bad... Who said that? Meatloaf?

[Chris Micha]

I really like this. It says a lot about hurt and pain. Might as well bleed it out and be done with it. Awesome! :)
