No Chain, No Charm
In Unison-
~No Chain, No Charm~
United we own
Firm, full of finest goodies-
Our ground of freedom.
United we stand
Firm from failure and horror-
On the ground of strength.
United we pray
Faithfully with open mind-
Our bliss is assured.

'mongst Shadows
Autumn's, veil, misty,
Intrigue prowls-horror’s echo,
Halloween's chill creeps.
Masked-truth’s cleaver guise,
Secrets whisper ‘mongst shadows,
Fear stalks-night’s cruel jest.

Slenderman
Always watching you.
He lurks in every corner.
You'll think you lost him.
He stalks you at night.
Don't ever look behind you.
Cause he will get you.

Haiku #12, 079-12,080...............................................Free Will
One man tend zillions
images my heart can't fend
Flesh, bones, pure ashes
One ill demagogue
Demented beyond compare
Ran himself to hell.
