Hello hello my loverly fiends, welcome to this week’s installment of
Horror Haikuesday
Our Horror Made resident poet, Patrick Rahall is kicking things off:
Refusal
I release my blood.
They scream, curse and pound the door.
Won’t let them turn me.
And now from the land of hashtagging:
People are puzzles:
Flimsily held together;
Torn apart with ease.#HorrorHaikuesday#horror#poetry@shudderpic.twitter.com/0ggvUTj2ZO

Final fleck of flesh
Skull plucked clean.
Carrion crows fly.#microprompt#Haiku#Haikutsunami

Piano keys fall
Hammered strings throb in anguish
Their screams make music#HorrorHaikuesday#poetry#GIALLOpic.twitter.com/QMDNbm1bt9

is this real life now
or is this just a nightmare
from which i can’t wake#HorrorHaikuesday#haiku#haikuchallenge

Beyond the threshold
Lies a darkened, endless suite.

Springtime affirms life
Disease also is revived
Death still close behind— Nano Horror (@tweetsthecreeps) March 8, 2016
