A Sequence of Haunted Haiku
written by: C.X. Turner
@lover__poetic
unseen and icy –
the tightening grip
around his throat
a shadow slips
beneath the door –
no second chance
unpicking
the horror within –
winter walker
cracked mirror –
her eyes staring back
from the wrong side
frost-covered glass –
faint whispers drift
into the room
