Haikus for the missing
a beautiful girl
crosses a line and becomes
a pillar of salt

a granite tombstone,
reminds us of her presence;
that's all that remains

her friends are distraught
confused by her departure
and left wondering

what horrible crime
precipitated this and
turned her into stone?

1. IBTL.
:popcorn:

I sure wish we were allowed to talk about what happened. It sort of leaves me wondering why some people can get away with stuff and others can't. :shrug:

2. Well, apparently she broke the rules.
Not too hard to understand on my end at least. :shrug:

4. I'm not defending anyone,
but I've seen others break the rules repeatedly and they're still here. :shrug:

5. Talking about a tombstoned DUer is against the rules.
So, in all honesty, WE'RE both breaking the rules right now. Weird, huh?
