Waiting for the final sleep
To set my song free

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

I dub thee, Good Sir Knight Nabisco, for your ability to create Oreo haiku so masterfully! We enjoy both the light and the dark at the same time! Well done.

What a striking haiku … it has a universal quality about it I think … which makes it a really great haiku! Well done indeed! 🙂
