You guys freakin’ rocked out horror haikuesday last week!
There was some pretty fantastic wordsmithing going on and it was a really difficult to choose 2 pieces to illustrate along with the featured Haiku. So here’s this week’s
Horror Haikuesday
‡ ——- ‡
From the Horror Made resident poet, Patrick Rahall we have:
Unfortunate
We all drew straws.
I got the short one and ran.
They caught and ate me.

Next is a Haiku submitted on Twitter from A.F. Stewart:
In stillness, a sound catch the cacophony vein— drip, drip, dripping blood #HorrorHaikuesday

And the final haiku selection from last week’s twitterverse submissions is from Ruth Long:
Coagulating at last, her features set in a thin bloody grin

This Week’s Honorable Mentions:
Blooming cherry tree
wry smile… tight hug – you & me –
one last bloody kiss…

Through snow, the world howls.
Thick sheets lift from other homes
Leaving naught behind.

Next Week:
If you’d like to have the chance to see your words featured here, use #horrorhaikuesday on twitter, or leave me a comment here with a two sentence horror story or horror haiku.
I choose 2 poems every week to create artwork for.
Oh! And, if your poem gets artwork attached to it, feel free to use the image wherever you’d like.
