oh, gosh, I already met you and did comment on this one before.I didn't mean anything bad by saying your poem read like haiku. It was a compiment becuase they are both asian forms and so I think it would be good for it to sound like haiku. I am such an addict. someone needs to shoot me because I can't stop coming back when i see comments showing up in my hotmail box. Just be glad I have not posted all the poems I ever wrote. That would take 40 pages iinstead of 10!!BYE

Very interesting one, Hathor.Why is this an Egyptian curse? Oh, on the Ghost that travels far. It is the personification of something in nature and which occurs once in a while in almost any place. Can you guess what it is?
