We made it guys! And for me, by the skin of my teeth today. I hope your Holiday festivities went/are going well and I really do apologize for flaking on posting this morning. I honestly forgot that it was Tuesday! It really felt like a Monday to me… Yesterday being Christmas got me all mixed up. Ah well. On to the poetry!
To Inspire You:
Dripping Through Fingers
The gore dripping through
her fingers
served as a reminder of what
I had forgotten.
But as each
drop
of
thick
blood
fell…
I could feel
the lingering memories fading.
What was I supposed
to remember?
And why are there so many
red strings
tied
around
where my fingers
ought to be?

Last week the prompt was How Horror Haikuesday Dunks Cookies. Let’s find out how your cookies are dealt with.

Kylie and I passed a few Haiku back and forth as well. If you haven’t tried this yet, I highly recommend it. It’s a lot of fun playing off of someone else’s poem.
dumb gingerbread man
he’ll crumble before he drowns

Losing his gumdrops

of dunking your gingerbread
is hearing him scream#horrorhaikuesday— Kylie Goetz (xkg) (@eXtremeKylieG) December 19, 2017
