The exercise:

Write two haiku about: compassion.

Or a lack thereof.

Whichever way your mood takes you.

  1. Possibly because I had to use 'splat' again yesterday, when I saw the prompt today I first read it as 'Compression'. But that's not what you want :)
    I am expecting to get the 4-line poem done soon(-ish) but I have work events at least two evenings this week, so Dream Kingdom might take a little longer. Feel free to add first if you want to :)

    Compassion
    She feels pain when you
    Hurt... it's not compassion but
    Electrodes that are

    Carefully set in
    Robotic nerve endings. May
    You never hurt her.

  2. Greg - no, that's not what I want. At all :(

    I'll have a look at DK when I'm done catching up on comments. Or when it's time to post the next revisit... whichever comes first.

    This was an unexpected but beautifully done take on the prompt. Consider me impressed. And you even squeezed in an acrostic!
