My Poetry

La Mort (Death)

1991
I wrote this Haiku in my high school French class. It was later published in my high school literary magazine "The Writers Manual: Blood, Sweat, Tears, and Cheese".





La mort
desolee, creuse
elle cache, elle glisse, elle rompe
elle est l'apprenti du mal-
le terme fatal.

(translation)
Death
desolate, empty
it lurks, it creeps, it crawls
it is evil's apprentice-
the end.
