Haiku 651
experience headaches
the ones too-cold ice cream brings
curling your forehead
Haiku 652
just a little joke
the red the itching the welts!
Poison ivy laughs.
Haiku 653
Climb up the wall
the ivy said. That is why
it was built. Let’s go.
Haiku 654
A human being
gossiping with another
exchanging snide smiles

These are all great poems. The “curling” is the perfect word to convey that specific type of headache pain. I like the aspiration of the ivy scaling the wall.
Thank you. That ice cream headache curling thing, I have used that word to myself for my whole life! And ivy, well, it takes any opportunity, doesn’t it? Which is one thing I like about it.
