Ja-ja, I got it. Ooch! A fly can make you very sick, but sometimes it is far less toxic than other items that make it into our food....especially when eating out at a resty. Uggh! Charma, this is still one of my favourite haiku that I have read in awhile.

Oki when this happened i was taking soup at marks and spencer restaurant.A fly fell in my soup,i didn't eat it afterwards ofcourse i get food poison.. :) and i tried to transmit the feeling here.In a haiku one have to associate what's happening with a season or event.. that's why i used first day of lent :).. I was hungry and remained hungry that day..My break was over..it was like a day of lent :)Got it?
