Hatred

Hatred is a worm,

                           That eats from the inside out...

                                                                      Leaving you hollow.




                                                                      Timothy I. Brumley

And an ugly worm it is, Timothy. You describe that "hollow" feeling very well in your senryu. Love, Carolyn
