I have a goal of 50 days - 50 haikus - responding to 50 different songs. These are songs with lyrics that I feel close to. Number Thirty Two is Pretty in Pink by The Psychadelic Furs. This song has one of the most beautiful lines ever written: She doesn't have anything you want to steal/Well, nothing you can touch.....

Pretty in Pink

Masking all her pain,
She wears a bright pink veneer,
Lost inside their game.

Please check out the great poetry from Paul Stewart and Tina D. Lopez who have joined me for the ride and created some beautiful work:
