The artist’s black soul
Spews across the taunting white
In blood and bile.

No comforting middle ground
Only black and white.

I wrote them all on a theme, not necessarily to directly go together… but they are close enough to be read that way, I think 🙂

I love the second haiku Al, not sure about the third one though, I would hate to think my sister could find a guiding light out of hell.
