    Some people have so much baggage that they don't have baggage their baggage has them. It's like they're being thrown around in a tumbleweed of their own baggage, especially when it comes to holding impossible standards for their partner, friends, family, etc.

    I'm with Shirley on this one. First of all, this is a wonderful and impactful Haiku, Lindsay. But your final line made me laugh out loud. Just sayin'.
