~ a Murder of Crows ~

by Gypsy Blue Rose


a group of crows is called a 'murder'
 
 
 
 
deceiving murder

scheme a crime at blood-red sunset—

backstabbers
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 




-blood-red is a shade of red
-a group of crows is called a murder

HAIKU is a Japanese very short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection between the top two lines and the last one, called the SATORI. HAIKU uses a dash to pause before the SATORI.. Haiku is about nature and it alludes to a season of the year. In Japan, haiku is written in 17 syllables and three lines ( 5/7/5) but in English is 17 syllables OR LESS because English syllables are longer than Japanese syllables. Avoid capitalization (except proper names) and punctuation; keep alliteration to a minimum. Lines should be connected grammatically to improve the flow of thought.
