Gerard Keogh Jr. Poet Haiku

Three From the Graveyard.

London. A fourth floor hotel room. Nightfall. Lawrence Talbot.

misty blue moonlight
shirt in shreds silver sinew...
howling for the hunt

Bavaria. The edge of the Black Forest . Midnight. A Creature Named Adam.

from grave to castle
pursuing a perverse mate...
lightning my mother

Haiti.  A fallow field off a dirt crossroads. Sunset. The Gris Gris Man.

lost Latin on the wind
fearful fugue for Godless souls...
resurrect the dead

Sleep well this night, won't you?
Aha Ha Ha Aha Aha Ha Ha Ha Ha....
