What Lurks Ahead

(a haiku)

Skin pricks, heart beats fast
Hands tighten round shark-skin haft.
Embers in the black.

Prof. Androne sez:
Haft of what?
This one puzzles me.
Grade: Check

  1. It was Richard Androne. I think he felt it needed more context for the average reader to get much out of it.

  2. Oh – I see you wrote that now. That’s even funnier that “he” gave it just a check. The irony is that you gave it a context with his grade and comment.
