Day Twenty-Five (25) of September Haiku Heights Challenge, and the prompt is Sleep. I have to confess that this Haiku is crafted from a poem on my blog, Sleep No More. Please, enjoy.
Sleep
Muse murders my sleep
I am no Lady Macbeth
I scribe, all night long

Thank you, Grace, for the encouragement.

I like that you used i scribe…and not write
Yeah. Blame it on my muse. 🙂
Oh! how dramatic! I love your murderous muse! May I borrow her?
Gladly, Jolly. 🙂
Ah…writer’s insomnia! You described it well! Nice one!
Thanks a mil, Barbara.
Wow, one of the best haiku I have read up to now.
It sounds beautifully, tragedy is present and you have used a lovely and elegant vocabulary.

Thank you so much, Sparklysilverstars
Oh, i like this, probably because my muse is a midnight murderess too.
I am laughing over here, Patti. 🙂

Loved the reference to Lady Macbeth 🙂
Glad you love the reference. 🙂
Wonderful choice of words: “murders” “scribe” these really set the mood.
Thank you;, Kathy.

I really like this haiku! Well written 😉
Thank you, Merlin. I’m grateful for your visit. 🙂
The Muse is on her own schedule – huh?
Another nice Haiku!
You know it, Rosy. Many thanks, my friend 🙂
Ahhh lovely! I ‘miss’ Lady Macbeth. By the way what do you call murder of a scribe by a muse? Scribecide? *grin*
I am laughing , Hazel. 🙂 And this is a nice one. Scribecide.
Like you, I’d rather write than sleep!
Sleep Behind Barred Windows
We are great! 🙂

Love this! What a wonderful way to pass the night.
Thanks, Teresa. I am awake now, almost midnight. 🙂
I’m sure many of us can relate to this one… 😉
Spot on. Though these days, I sleep so much out of fatigue and my muse sleeps too as a result. 🙂
