Mine Is The Honour (Haiku) Poem by Herbert Nehrlich

Mine Is The Honour (Haiku)

Rating: 5.0


The consequences
will not be felt by others.
The spark is dying.

Faith was the substance
of a house of playing cards,
mine is the honour.

Life was your target.
A breath, once snuffed, is nothing
without a heartbeat.

A follow-up to 'Satan's Law' and fittingly grim at that. G.
