Hidden behind a mask
A monster trapped in torment
Stalks the opera
ψ
The sun’s warming rays
Falling onto the soft beach
Warming the white grains

Voices of the dead
I can hear you loud and clear

Lost inside a trance
Victim cradled in his arms
Sharp fangs pierce the flesh
Man on a mower
Cutting between the gravestones
Corpses start to wake
The moon shining bright
Yellow and full in the sky
A lone howl erupts

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?

Dusting off the marriage rust
Lust and ecstasy

A normal day to day life
One night stand erased

Man finds a bloody bundle
Laying on his desk
Fearing for his life
The fool entertained the king
Hoping for laughter

King sat silently
No smile upon his harsh face
The fool was sentenced

Off to the dungeon
The fool protested loudly
Drug away screaming

The fool smiled through pain
Lying in his harsh cold cell
Visitor approached
+
Unlocking the cage
The queen helped the fool escape
Lovers embracing

Silently vowing revenge
Cold gun in her purse

Movement above me
Something in the attic dark
Stirring all about
