Dad Wears Purple Against Eating Disorders: Revolutionary ImproVerse Rhyming Haiku

I wear new purple/
because I love my girl who/
does not love herself.

Avoiding Pain: Revolutionary Blogging Haiku

How can I stay glad/
and positive when my girl/
hurts with such deep pain?

For my daughter I/
wish it was “Yesterday Once/
More”, and tomorrow.

When we guide our kids/
as they learn to walk, we don’t/
criticize their falls.

“Comfortably Numb” is/
not just drug- or booze-induced./
Starving feels that way.

Ugly cow, fat slob,/
worthless, pathetic bitch is/
what she always hears.

Sometimes all you can/
do is wait, pray, hope, have faith,/
and do all you can.

My Dad tells me: “Be
happy!” He’s never had a
child killing herself.

Being there for her/
means sometimes I won’t answer
her painful request.

You may now notice/
that all the people who love/
you won’t talk to you.
