A Few Haikus

walking mountaintops
where the clouds kiss the damp earth
and it is quiet

Long do I lay here
Amid terrors of the night
Yearning to see you

to sacrifice all
and gain nothing in reply
is it all worth while?

an angel of night
unseen beauty robed in white
a shadow in the bright


a sword's edge is sharp
as is most deceitful word
both of them cut you


evil in your eyes
destruction is your friend
darkness in your wake


brazen harmony
spun with delicate silver thread
woven images
