Light rules the night sky,
Days that never cease to end;
Perpetual sun.

Erasing History
This is just an experimental piece I wrote to help revive my creativity, as well as my blog. Enjoy!
Burning photograph;
It’s ashes lightly descend,
On freshly laid snow.

Petrified Bystanders
Agonizing scream.
Collapses to floor; twitching;
The body contorts.
Others slowly back away.
Crunching sounds of bones breaking.

Lost Battle
Battle at a loss;
Warriors are crestfallen;
Humiliation.

Infected
Skin breaking apart,
Festering sore opens up;
Becomes infected.
Another experimental haiku.

Warrior
Bloodshed all around;
Smiting has his enemies down.
Fueled with vengeance.

Journey
Uncomfortable,
Unfamiliarity;
New journey begins.

Lost
Thrown from the black hole.
A parallel universe;
It’s secrets hiding.

Hunted
Running out of breath;
Pursuers not far behind;
Exhaustion nearing.

Shooting Star
The night sky brightens;
Light streaking through the heavens.
Hopeful children wish.
