    Ok, billl, we'll forgive you! These haikus are addictive!

    web imaginings
    reality's stark black, white
    blind fantasy world
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    blind fantasy world
    its pulsating neon sign
    reads: danger ahead

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    reads: danger ahead
    winding road looms serpent-like
    vision blurs at curve
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    take the middle way
    at its word, benefit of
    the doubt goes both ways
    "It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."

    - Horace

    the doubt goes both ways
    a decision uncertain
    how shall you now choose?
    I have no wish to engage in a battle of wits with one who is unarmed

    how shall you now choose?
    take the road less traveled by?
    makes no difference.

    makes no difference
    whether it's male or female
    love's bisexual.

    blood brothers for life let's be
    sister's hand in hand

    Oh, no, I just mixed them up again....lets see what I can come up with. Haunted is going to scold me no doubt in three person....I will be right back to finish this one....Ok, I am back...had to do a quick fix in three person H.

    four hands between us
    four feet as well, four eyes, but
    one delicate heart

    oops that is still not quite right...should have used your last line maz, sorry bout that....


    how can I do more?
    you can hope, that's eternal
    but be realistic
