This is pretty much every other haiku I have. It was a short phase. I might get back into it, though. Basho is quite nice
A crimson petal
Plummets to the ground below
Crashes into snow
A malicious form
Slices through the soul’s deep shroud
Pierces into life
A single ray of hope
Shines through the shadow of death
Throwing back its cloak
Shrieks of dread resound
As hallucinations rise
Cowering in fear
Alone and confused
Yet on each side stands a friend
He is singled out
A demonic form
Creeps from behind shadows
And corrupts the light
A flaming bird falls
Crashing to the ground below
It rises anew
A cloak of the past
Shrouds all of the present’s light
Trapping the future
Confused and afraid
Of releasing inner thoughts
Sorrow never leaves
Blackest form of night
Shrouds all thoughts of future hope.
A lance pierces through
A lone form crouches
Preparing to strike the meek
He rears back, but stops.
Distant flames approach
Turning all in its path
To cinders of red
A form of heaven
And yet, is hell’s avatar
A forbidden bond
The earth starts to shake
Cracks appear on a mountain
Flame bursts from the top
Hugging her shoulders
A girl begins to shiver
Her heart is ice cold
As swift as the wind
A blade cuts through human flesh
His blood runs freely
Pressing against her
A man’s lips brush against hers
His passion rises
He slices, cuts, stabs
The blade is soaked in their blood
No remorse is shown
Winding wisps of air
Twirl through clouds of misty fog
The currents go far
Rustling leaves brush
Veins twisting against their will
Fingers of trees twitch
Haikus 2
Rushing leaves float by
A blade cuts through the noon air
They crash to the ground
Rising orb of night
Shining through a shroud of black
Destroyed by stray wisps
Two spirits converge here
One of shade and other light
A swirling symbol
Listless eyes look up
From focusing mind’s closed eye
Snapping lids flash bright
Puffs of cloud spinning
Ancient beings raise astral
Hands to strike the earth
Hidden emotions
Feelings that no one can know
Lost in the shadow
Tortured memories
Demonic angelic soul
Trapped in mortal shape
Glistening lights flash
Piercing my vision and mind
Simply reflection
Forged in spirit hearth
Water caresses its fangs
A divine tiger
