Robert Bellam Poet Haibun

That Strange Shadow a Forbidden Haibun

Spring night -- an odd attraction to this alley. Dark shadows -- something lurking in that corner. Soft breeze -- a weird paralysis in my legs.  

softly breezes blow:
hair fluttering fled, disarrayed
what: distraction

eyes blinking wildly --
stiff deadened toes shivered
body slow --- stiffened

Nothing heard --
within non-sounds: darkness rose
eventide swoons

spring night 
moonbeam bright
bumping jumping slithering crawling
