We fear nothing so
much as fear to which we have
not yet put a name...

I have dreams in which I frantically check every locked door and window, only to discover that one has been silently breached. I don't know what I fear will get in if I'm not vigilant, but the worry continues to plague me!

ReplyDeleteEerie old prison window. Your haiku is apt. ♥O
ReplyDeleteGood to see you back, Lynette. I've missed you.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice for Halloween, a prison window. (Teeny tiny typo in Lincoln, the editor in me cries.)

Nice work! I'm such a sucker for haiku.
ReplyDeleteI even have my own blog of (mostly) non-traditional haiku, if you're interested: Haiku Koo-Koo
Yes - great combo of photo and words. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteYour haiku is terrific - perfect for Halloween!
ReplyDeleteHalloween is a great time to consider that deep down we are all a little defenseless against unseen forces. Your timely haiku and dream expresses the vulnerability well. Nice to have you back, Lynette!
ReplyDeleteNice..written well!
ReplyDeleteCompletely true!
ReplyDeleteNice haiku - true words!
ReplyDeleteI can definitely agree with that...felt.
ReplyDeleteFunny how dreams affect us isn't it? My dreams are always of being chased..oddly enough, by an unknown. Creepy picture and great post :)
ReplyDeleteYour Haiku carries a powerful message and the photo is awesome.
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween.
An amazing Haiku Lynnette! :-)
