I think you are right, my friend, Miraj, however, I write what I am inspired. These monoku don't take me more than a minute or two to write! In the old days I was writing very long poems but now that I ...run out of time, I have to be careful. Haha! Thank you for your lovely visit and comment!

My grandfather long passed would say that the road to hell was paved with good intentions. Your version of the turth is more eloquent...nicely stated my friend.
