i could only watch
as each brick was slowly laid
inches from my face
…
i was gagged and bound
prevented from impeding
those who sought my end
…
and as each course grew
i could plainly see my end
in this waning light
…
the last brick is placed
i was swallowed by darkness
time will now take me

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.

Love the multiple haiku structure Brenton ! That image is funny even if the poetry or not.. but knowing you it’s some type of symbolism slash social commentary! ☺️👍
Oh wow, so tragic. May I know the backstory of this? Like what actually happened? Loved your Haikus!
Horrific, absolutely terrifying.
Oooo, that made me so claustrophobic!! Your words painted that picture too well, lol.
