Sorry about being late to this one; yesterday was fairly busy with work and booking flights and hotels to Spain to see a friend of mine en route back to Malta. Plus a minor inconvenience that it turns out I would have landed in Malta exactly 14 days after leaving Ukraine and I think they would have counted that as needing quarantine (for a further 14 days, which is as stupid as it sounds) so I had to adjust everything a little to arrive back on Tuesday. Anyway, that wasn't interesting enough to warrant all that typing so let's get to the haiku!

Potential
He's high potential,
Lightning seeks him out, then strikes,
Charging him up more.

-----
All her potential
Is smother'd by her mother.
Suffocating love.

Greg - hah, well, I'm glad your travels are all sorted now and I hope that your visit is enjoyable :)

Ooh, these are both very good. I can feel a lot of story lurking in your first, and the second tells a story all on its own.
