Gargoyles Haikus

by Dirce


1. Goliath
Desolate in stone
Brave leader and warrior
Friendship gives him hope
*
2. Elisa
Red leather jacket
Good detective trusts no one
At least, until now
*
3. Demona
Angel of the night
Hatred and vengeance made flesh
Forever alone
*
4. Hudson
Mentor, old soldier
Does the river need a name?
Years of fighting left
*
5. Broadway
Though gourmand, he thinks
Not with stomach but with heart
Gentle, sweet, and kind
*
6. Brooklyn
Rebel with a cause
Wears his sunglasses at night
Looking for romance
*
7. Lexington
Curious-minded
Clever with technology
Tinkerer-gremlin
*
8. Bronx
Caught scent of danger
Scratching at the tapestry
His nose never lies
*
9. Angela
Favorite hatchling
Insists on strong family ties
Over objections
*
10. Xanatos
All things to one goal
What use is the wealth without
Immortality?
*
11. Owen
Loyal to a fault
Right hand man with left hand stone
Lifetime of service
*
12. Puck
Through the looking glass
Chance to have a little fun
Come on, let’s party!
*
