Misery

Meet me at the end Inside the fire we'll begin See what you've done to these men Even Ive had enough of this Realize that you have sinned You will burn in your insolence

Shoo as I read this poem, I keep wandering what must have inspired this short piece.I'm curious, really (I'm all about inspiration). Nice and short- to the point. Sounds like a hard slap in the face- more like its directed at judgmental people or those who maltreat others (physically?mentally?both?). That whole bit, " Even I've had enough.....burn in your insolence", automatically places an invisible exclamation mark at the end- perhaps even 3!!! Hard-hitting yo. Simply Amah-zhing.

Hi Jeff you are not reading my haiku wrong, originally when English speakers first started trying to write haiku they equated a syllable to a 'sound' the japanese have a tonal language and they do not equate, the more current thought is 17 syllables OR less..most try for 14..short long short is most common, a 2 part structure with a season word. Hope that helps nice to meet you. PS 5/7/5 would not be considered wrong simply old school the content is more important. Light & Love
