sightless darkness smirks across grinning deck flesh flies deaf ears, silence smiles

It sounds like a dead body waiting to be found Joseph...am I being to literal? Where is the rest of the haibun? My imagination on this imagery gave me chills. : )

The image I had in mind when writing this was a little screwy but had to put it to pen... something popped up on the internest about Hellen Keller and I had odd vision of her try to play the piano. Sorry mislabeled as Haibun, should have been senyru

thanks for kind feedback... this was written as a little bit of dark humor... or at least my take on it. will leave explanation of inspiration for a few days, kind of want to see how it is interpreted...
