HAIKU MUSIC CHALLENGE

Naviarhaiku 559

misty spring rains...
umbrellas high and low
aboard the ferry

Regarded as the father of contemporary haiku, Masaoka Shiki was a poet and literary critic during the Meiji period Japan.

He advocated realistic observation by “sketching” (shasei) poems and going out into nature with notebooks, thus abandoning the traditional subjects of haiku of the time. His advice for an aspiring poet was, “Use both imaginary pictures and real ones, but prefer the real ones.”

Towering clouds. The edges of those clouds glow. My heart is at peace as I gaze at the clouds, which remain motionless forever.

CRYING HOUSE

ETHEREAL AMBIENT SOUNDSCAPES INSPIRED BY GAME OF THRONES AND THE  LORD OF THE RINGS AND MANY OTHERS. RELAX, ENJOY AND DRIFT AWAY.

CTHULHU MYTHOS - THE DEAD CITY

Upon death, something speaks to you.

It speaks in tongues in tones so low that it tattles the rib cage in your chest.

You can only make out one thing: you aren't supposed to be here.


This plays when you're killed by the Gameover Boss, and it also plays when you manage to kill it, it congratulates you curtly in a gurgling, strained voice made of thousands of voices combined, and melts to form a bridge. You remain in this dark place with only one path ahead of you.
