Happy New Year my Haikuesday friends! We have a fresh start and a whole new year of shivers and chilling laughter to create together and I couldn’t be more excited! What will we make of 2018?
To Inspire You:
The Blood Moon Rises.
It’s heat stings like that of the noon-day sun.
But it is across the barren expanse
that greatness will be found.
And so,
white knuckled
we grip to the hope
that forward momentum will be enough
to make it through to the other side.
The long journey into the burning night begins.
~Jeanette Andromeda
Created By You:
Last year (last week) you all created poetry based on the visual prompt in Slipping Through The Fingers of #HorrorHaikuesday. Let’s see how we said goodbye to 2017:
Her family’s blood
adorned her hands like gauntlets
to please her dark soul#horrorhaikuesday @horror_made https://t.co/CPBP10Iwmk— Pancake Bunnykins (@p_bunnykins) December 27, 2017
Only your shadow
Need regard its bloody hands.
Think not on your deeds. pic.twitter.com/8kG0z3U9Aa— Nano Ho-Ho-Horror (@tweetsthecreeps) December 26, 2017
Tainted fingertips Show the world your crimes. Scrub well; They’ll never be clean. #horrorHaikuesday pic.twitter.com/pUHCVEO72C

“This? This is nothing,”
She sneered. “Merely the leavings
Of my last suitor.” pic.twitter.com/InNjobGo2f— David Tully (@CynicalEyebrow) December 26, 2017
There’s no self control
I slit through the gilt cover

Helsinki vampire
finds this blood is nothing but
coffee and licorice.#horrorHaikuesday https://t.co/foeLrT7Ntm— Pete Alex Harris (@ScavengerEthic) December 26, 2017
unsatisfying…
she thought it would be more fun
to rip out his heart#horrorhaikuesday pic.twitter.com/7RRKfGjFFa— Kylie Goetz (xkg) (@eXtremeKylieG) December 26, 2017
fingers drip darkness
the inky black of her soul
oozing out of her#horrorhaikuesday— Kylie Goetz (xkg) (@eXtremeKylieG) December 26, 2017
shadows cling to her
like the blood of sacrifice
she can’t wash away#horrorhaikuesday— Kylie Goetz (xkg) (@eXtremeKylieG) December 26, 2017
Shadow mine, ascend
Inner darkness to embrace
Dripping blood so cold

Did any of you make some New Year’s Resolutions? One of mine is to (after today…) Actually start posting Haikuesday posts at 9am EST again. That means scheduling these puppies instead of doing them on Tuesday mornings XD. The other is to bring more featured artists and featured poets onto the blog each week. So if you have anyone you would recommend, or would like to join in. Just let me know! You can reach me at Jeanette@horrormade.com.
Happy New Year my creative friends! ❤
