Haiku – Christmastime – Part 5

Part 1

Christmastime of year

With a soft white snow falling

Killer spies his prize

Part 2

Cold and all alone

With presents of red and green

She hurries inside

Part 3

Killer makes his move

Jingle bells, detective sees

Feet rush through the snow

Part 4

Killer grips his knife

White lights twinkle in the hall

Victim doesn’t see

Part 5

Gun blasts from behind

Shots echo in the hallway

Killing spree is done

    Very cool! I like the imagery of Christmas and lights. Good villain, though I can’t help but wonder what the detective was off doing.. 😉

      Thanks for the comment. I guess the detective was doing what detective’s do. You gave me an idea to maybe try this from the detective’s point of view.
