Very deep Rob. Three questions to which most of us wouldn't like the answer ...had to read again.

Lovely imagery and a clever write. I like how each individual 'ku stands alone but together form a cohesive whole. Regards, John.

Great to have read this today. Got me some thinking to do. I'd say they are the most important questions. And I think I'd try this form.

I had to study Questionku, a new one for me. Excellent 4, 5, 6 with last line question! Also excellent flow of thoughts to end any day. Love it! ~ Susan

Well done. It is difficult to create a thurough introduction in 3 lines, but you did it. Then following it up with deep inquiries. Breat job being able to say so much in such a limitted format. Great Job!!

Wonderful ku. I'd have to say that I have a preference for the middle one -you know, incase anyone was asking. Best of luck in the comp.
