Horror Haiku Club Prompt

[Jeff Kinnard]

Memory and thought

The eyes of our Allfather

Huginn and Muninn

[Honeygloom]

I wondered if someone would use these two! I love it! Norse mythology is my favorite ❤️

[Andrei Atanasov]

Norse mythology! Love it!

[Jeff Kinnard]

I was beyond excited when I saw "Raven" as the prompt and knew immediately it would be about Huginn and Muninn! I love Norse mythology so much. It may not fit into horror, but I couldn't help it.

[Andrei Atanasov]

I love it too! Great stuff.

Feaster after war

Sharp bills drink eyes of the dead

Glutted with pale flesh

[Honeygloom]

“Raven’s feast” is my favorite kenning for battle. The image of these big black birds picking a battlefield clean is so chilling. Nicely done.

In darkness they soar

An unkindness of ravens

To mock Poe’s spent soul

[Honeygloom]

Poor Poe😔 He never got the success he deserved. Lovely little ode.

[Andrei Atanasov]

Raven dark hair,

My beloved turns from me

And whispers, Wake up.

[Honeygloom]

You are soooo good at evoking an understated unease. Amazing!

[Andrei Atanasov]

Thanks!! I might publish a Halloween themed haiku collection, seeing as I’m having so much fun with these.

The ravens beauty

Appreciated by me

Black bold graceful queen

[Iris Shaw]

Know then, in darkness

The one-eyed man is waiting

Ravens ride his soul
