Wow, the implications in this were a bit of a shocker. How would you know if you fed her or not, if not for the chart? I wonder if you wish the person harm or just simply forgot. Either way, the person looks the same, and that's the worst part. A very awesome senryu! You told a much bigger story that the actual content provided. It's implications that make haiku and senryu such a pleasure to read.

Deaf, dumb and blind, who knew if she'd mind. But paralization leaves lips of frustration. And stomachs that begin to talk. Congrats on your placement. :)
