How to Write Haiku in English. And how to do a Pingback.
The Guidelines:

endless- the shi rensa
It would be reckless
to claim any joy this morn.
War dulls the luster.

War claims the language of death
and then delivers.
And then delivers
blasts, bullets, endless despair,
a world petrified.
A world petrified,
frozen in angst, inaction,
descent into hell.
