The weekly haiku

Inadvertent insult
Salts wounds with its bitter truth
Taunting from afar


An occasional e-mail correspondent summed up my life here the other day in one devastating word - inertia. I would be reeling from the shock of it, but I don't even have the energy for that.

Why, yes indeed, PN.

Would you prefer 'unwitting'? It doesn't sound quite right to me.
