Prince of Darkness

Day two of 50 days of haiku inspired by songs

Danger, it now looms

As the jazz prince of darkness

He intoxicates

Thanks for reading!

This is inspired by Alyson Smith's challenge of writing a haiku a day for 50 days inspired by songs and lyrics that are special to her.

So this is my second entry, inspired by Rated X by Miles Davis. Okay so I know this is a break from the pattern as no lyrics but I love the song. 

Tina D. Lopez has also been doing this challenge.

Make sure you check out both their poems at their profiles.
