Thanks
But well done!
Bu tthen there is penicillin which comes from bread mold...makes a difference when and where it grows
Your mold issues are
universal in their scope.
Beware the black; it's worst!
Sandra, I fixed it. It's now 5, 7, 5. It works! It works!
The second one came to me when I read a research paper about fumonisin, a mold that grows on corn, blocking the absorption of folate in pregnant women, which can lead to neural tube defects in the fetus and ultimately death.
Nothing else.
Second haiku is not in 5-7-5
