Unnoticed...foot to
face on the cold grey pavement.
Embarrassing kiss.

Field of the Fallen
Sunlight danced softly across the frost-crusted fields, making the little blades of grass sparkle like emeralds. The faraway chirrup of a songbird was the only disruption to the quiet of the morning. An icy chill, the last vestige of the dying winter, clung to the air, settling in a thick white mist at the far side of the open field. The heavy stench of decay hung in that mist, punctuation by the sharp tang of freshly spilled blood.

Loved the haiku and the skit haha I hadn't seen that one yet and LOVE Jordan Peele!
I have yet to fall on my face on ice. I have however, fallen on my butt a couple of times. XD
Relatable.. how many times I’ve scrambled like a cartoon character or straight up ate it on ice I didn’t notice. Especially at work. Also, that skit is a throwback lol.
