Haiku Challenge for Jan. 9: ‘Dark’

Today’s haiku challenge:

Today's @baffled #HaikuChallenge: any haiku you like, as long as it has the word 'dark' in it….

My style is the five/seven/five syllable structure. Here are my 5 haiku poems.

dark entanglements
nefarious, but pleasing
and squeezing harder.

dark mentality
our love spiraling further
thrilling cessation.

dark mastication
pulverizing the shadows
until they leave me.

dark execution
a slow motion injection
hungry veins await.

dark capacity
depression, anxiety
get their fill inside.
