Carrying on my theme of talking about growing up with mental disabilities, I tried to do something different by doing a haiku about intrusive thoughts, self doubt, and fitting in. It should work as the 5-7-5 with both the hidden text included and excluded. Haven't written a poem in at least 15 years so hopefully this doesn't fall as flat as I expect it might!

Jesus is this great. Haven’t related to a fictional work so much in a while. Wonderful stuff.

I'm glad these sites have trained me to always highlight when there's empty space, had a very happy moment when text actually showed up for once. As for the poem, it's short and effective, just as haikus should be, and very cleverly done to boot. +1
