Blood Haiku Collection


Three haiku written for Haiku Heights #309



life forces promise
first solitary drop found
a rite of passage
....................................................

without blood flowing
unconscious unresponsive
empty lifeless shells
....................................................

carnage at the scene
an incriminating clue
points to the guilty

  5. Blood makes me a little squeamish, so I don't like to look at it (or imagine- especially in large quantities!) My favorite is the first one. It feels like there is more of a story in those words.
