Life & Death Haikus: Scaling Vision (Original Poem)

in #poetry • 8 years ago (edited)


Shedding deception
Slithering into your trust
Ready to strike you...

There are many snakes in your circle, coiled up and preying on your downfall. Tread carefully and discern who is truly within your trust. You can usually see it in their eyes, and mannerisms. Too many serpentines to slay...

Thank you for reading & viewing this post in its entirety, I hope you enjoyed it for what it's worth.

        All too true, unfortunately. Good job with this.

        My renga:

        One has to be so careful
        This world is full of serpentines

          Nice renga, I appreciate your creative response with a fresh poem
          Many thanks, and glad we see what is happening, it is hard to not see it since it can be so blatantly obvious and in one's face
