Good morning and hello Saturday to all. I hope each of you are well and have a lovely weekend planned. I am on the brink of the flu but had this post planned in and wanted to complete it before hiding under the duvet.
This is another experiment and this time using Haiku’s. As you will see below I have used three separate ones and brought them together.
Please let me know what you think 🙂
Dark City
The evil concealed,
Beneath the settled darkness,
Waiting patiently
For when the light comes,
The horror will be revealed,
And the day haunted
Screaming will ensue,
The hero nowhere in sight,
villains on his throne.

Evocative and finely unsettling. Complete package as it should be.
PS (hope the flu doesn’t hang around)

I liked this a lot! What a great mood, created with so few words. (I’m thinking about having one of my characters speak entirely in haiku’s. Would be quite an interesting challenge. Lol.)
