Sudden shock of crows
Tearing apart the fabric
Of a slate-gray sky.
Early morning flight
Brings in weary travellers
From a distant land.
The paperman throws
Stories of yesterday's world
Within my four walls.
Sounds of distant death
Shatter the silence within
My half-waking mind.
In some dark corner
I hear the lizard ruling
Its empire of death.

thanks for putting it up, koshy. one clarification - it's not separate linked haikus, but a single poem called 'morning' written in linked haikus.
i would change "within" to "into."
haikus? then they need a hell of a lot more working on.
ah, i was wondering where the critic was :D
why? as in any specific reason they need working on?
