Another friday
A long week comes to an end
Time to rest a bit
Another friday
A long week comes to an end
Time to rest a bit
Wooden boards creaking
Footsteps that are not my own
Walking on the floor
Bleak cold grey headstones
Fresh light of dawn breaks on them
One grave is empty
In the darkened room
Nightlight protects the children
From monsters unseen
Deadly shape shifter
I hear your howls at the moon
Tonight it all ends
†
I fear no silver
You cannot defeat me now
In my beastly form
†
Claws slash, rip, tear flesh
Hunter and creature battle
A gun blast echoes
†
A month of days pass
Fever, chills, tormented soul
Full moon on the rise
Standing in shadows
Vampire watching his victim
Lusting for rich blood
This was the first Haiku I wrote for the challenge this week. I just couldn’t wrap my head around what to write for the word “pin.” It was getting frustrating. Below are the three lines I came up with.
I can’t pin it down
Can’t think of a good Haiku
Too tough this Monday
Then these two popped into my mind.
I think they sound decent enough.
Pinned under a car
Spider-Man swings into help
There to save the day
+
Hair pinned up and neat
Ready for the junior prom
Waiting for her date

Anyway, do you want to take the challenge this week?
