Haiku-dle from Doodle

Back brace breaking me
Itchy scratching never stops
Mother rocks to sleep

Eleventh birthday
I’m feeling fat by the lake
Friends never notice

Back brace? Did you have scoliosis?

Fat by the lake. I've been there.

I had a mis-placed disk. I vividly remember this horrid liquid I had to drink before my catscan. They told me it would taste like lemonade. IT DID NOT. This memory smells like hospital. Weird.

I remember having to drink something horrible before my catscan that they said would taste like Sunkist. It was more like orange flavored glue with sweet n' low. My memory smells like hospital too! Better than dentist.

Fat by the lake smells the worst.

Neddibobeddi is wandering past that lake now. 13 - still prepubescent - and pudgy baby boy. looking at cousin Jason now is one of his best reminders that this too shall pass.

And is that the lake where cowboy sheriff caught the turtle??

that memory smells like lubbock and sounds like chirping bugs.

Why are these comments poetic too? You are all amazing. I will try my best:

fat by the pool was my memory, and it smells like bitter grandmother and doublemint gum.
