April is the halfway point to Halloween! It’s also Earth Month. The easiest way to celebrate both is too plant new pumpkins for the upcoming Halloween season!
blue skies and white clouds
planting jack o lanterns
from seed to smile
Be safe out there.
March has been a little rough, but I have a new haiku to share, celebrating both St. Patrick’s Day and the recent horror show that is the United States. Not everything that glitters is gold.
beware the trickster
whose only concern is gold
death is imminent
Be safe out there.
This year, I’m returning to my roots and posting simple horror haiku.
snow moon bears witness
murder, rape, and dark chaos
heartbroken fools
This year, I’m returning to my roots and posting simple horror haiku.
ICE cold hands
shocking murder in plain sight
dead of winter
You better watch out.
You better not pout.
You better not cry,
or you’ll give your hiding spot away.
Our theme this month is A Christmas to Dismember and it pairs perfectly with December’s cold moon, aptly named for the dip in temperatures. Winter is coming….but if ask any left american, it’s been here since last January.
under a cold moon
a Christmas to Dismember
hiding from Santa
Be safe out there.
Happy November! It’s been a minute since this country has had any hope, but last night showed the world that Americans see through the lies of greedy evil conmen. A battle was won but maggots have declared war on our own country. This fight is far from over. We must stand tall like trees and trust in our deep roots.
November’s full moon is a Beaver moon, the biggest brightest supermoon of the year, and I have hope that it will light the way for lost souls well into next year.
forest trees stand tall
lost souls searching through the fog
misty fall morning
Be safe out there.
Happy Halloweek! Posting a special Halloween haunted haiku for Monday Macabre.
voices on the wind
spooky scares all week long

Happy October! We are a haunted nation, full of demons masquerading as god’s children, in places we never dreamed, doing things we don’t want to imagine.
Resist evil.
October’s full moon is the first supermoon of the year, a harvest moon, named for time of year when crops are plentiful. Too bad no one is around to pick them.
screams that no one hears
beware of those haunted souls
nation full of ghosts
Be safe out there.
Happy October! It’s been a busy summer. I admit that keeping up with a blog this year has been challenging. On one hand I love it, I love sharing Halloween haiku and other spooky stuff, but truth is I simply don’t have the time to blog like I used to.
I also know times are tough and depressing. It’s not going to get better anytime soon, we need Halloween! We need to celebrate our culture and traditions more than ever and we need to make new memories! Good memories! You never know when that may be the only thing you have. So after careful consideration, I will again be celebrating all 31 days of Halloween this year.
There will be two themes this month, Haunted Halloween and Halloween Happy. Americans are a haunted people, but we all deserve life. Halloween is for everyone. Full stop. The holiday combines both ancient pagan and religious ceremonies. The original purpose was to chase away the demons and bad ghosts that crossed over the spirit realm because of the thin veil between the living and the spirit world.
Don’t let anyone tell you how to do Halloween. Decorate or not. Wear a costume or not. We can be scary and sweet. We can be spooky and cute. Let the teenagers trick or treat. Kids collecting candy are too occupied to do anything else. I truly believe Halloween makes people happy. It’s about community. We need our communities more than ever. It’s the only thing that can save America now.
Be sure to check back every day this October for cool, fun, and inspirational Halloween, horror, and haiku.
