A quick one night stand
Dusting off the marriage rust
Lust and ecstasy
+
Back to the routine
A normal day to day life
One night stand erased
+
Two quick weeks later
Man finds a bloody bundle
Laying on his desk

Haiku – Jester
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

Haiku – Sleeping Evil
A simple pay day
One job – lots and lots of cash
Two very rich men
+
An abandoned house
Nestled in a dark forest
Ancient and empty
+
A break of the lock
Time for their quick easy score
Something hidden stirs

Haiku – Investigation
Laying on the desk
File filled with hidden secrets
Things he had done wrong
+
PI in his chair
Fedora and suit pressed tight
Watching her response
+
Soft tears on her cheek
Silently vowing revenge
Cold gun in her purse

Haiku – Pest
Buzzing all about
Large white bug inside the room
Flying on small wings

Fear Filled Fridays (3/9/2018): Noises in the Night
Movement above me
Something in the attic dark
Stirring all about

Hail to the sunshine
Provider of warmth and light
Thanks for all you do

Fear Filled Fridays (3/2/2018): A Haunting
She floats – transparent
Ghost descending down the stairs
She evaporates

Haiku – Morning Treat
Cast iron skillet
Egg cracked open and sizzling
Next to round sausage

Fear Filled Fridays (2/23/2018): Entombed Part 4
I am cold upon this floor,
in the spot I lie.
embers – out
blizzard – strong
I lift a gentle sigh,
breath white in front of me.
The snow – all around.
Entombed
Peace I finally see.
-
Haiku – Lady in White
Ghost in the dark hall
Fading into nothingness
Vanishing from view

Fear Filled Fridays (2/16/2018): Entombed Part 3
Yum, I say,
as this rat chews soft.
Yum, I say,
while sitting in my loft.
Damn, I say,
as the days drift long.
Damn, I say,
it’s all gone wrong.
