Horror Haiku Club Prompt

September 24 - Dionysus

As an avowed lush, I couldn’t leave out the god of the grape harvest. As I type this I have a deliciously sweet and spicy Pinot Noir sitting next to me. Yeah, I’m a Dionysus fan girlie. But he’s much more than just the god of theatre, wine, festivity, harvests, and fertility. Dionysus has a dark side.

Your prompt is DIONYSUS

Dance among the vines

Their sweet scent and honied juice

Awakens madness

He’s also the god insanity and ritual madness, said to drive his followers to depraved acts of sex and bloodletting.
