Haiku – Secret
Shamefully he cried
His soul tempted by her lust
Too weak to resist

Haiku – Just Before The Dawn
Short story re-writes
I wake in my warm soft bed
To answer the call
+
I’ve been working on a collection of short stories that I hope to release before Halloween. I do have a pretty cool cover for it already that you may or may not have seen already.
James is the designer of the cover and his work can be found here: http://www.goonwrite.com/index.htm
Before I leave you, here are a couple of things related to the title of this Haiku.
This is a solid slasher movie from the Eighties – one I still own on DVD. Cheap, creepy, and a great score.
A great song from the mighty Judas Priest – this is a ballad by them.

Haiku – Dracula
Slip into a trance
My fair white skin will hold you
While I bare sharp fangs

Haiku – Through the Peephole
At the woman’s door
A stranger stands motionless
Husband, ghost, or foe?

So, who is the stranger?

Haiku – Breakfast Time
Outside with my son
Good Apple Cinnamon Chex
Making him smile big
+
I love this time of year. You can sit outside, and just enjoy Mother Nature. My son and I love to sit out on the deck. A fun time for us, and easy clean up for me once breakfast is over – bonus.
So, favorite brand of Chex? I’m partially to Corn, Chocolate, or Cinnamon.

Haiku – On the Deck
Steaming coffee mug
Morning starts with cool sunshine
Birds singing their song
+
This song doesn’t fit the post, but it is so good I had to share. It is loud, fast, and ridiculously awesome – I really love the sound of this band.

Intense waves pounding
Shoreline buried by water
Back to sea it goes
