Ahh yes, the comic book character! That's a great one! He even had a story called 'Terror at the Opera', which fits in nicely with this week's post, too. Haha... 🏯😎🏯
You're very welcome! That's a very thought-provoking piece of Haiku. They do say many places that exist now will one day be underwater and just 'ghosts' of what they once were... 🏯😎🏯
Streaming can definitely feel like bombardment, for sure. There's just no end to the amount of choice on those platforms. I probably spend more time browsing through the films, trying to decide what to watch, than I do actually watching them! Haha... 🏯😎🏯
Phantom forest; trees
crowned, birds ascended; now black
stumps where mushrooms grow.
That paints a fantastic image! Thanks for joining in... 🏯😎🏯
Thank you! Happy to be here.
Veiled schemes in shadows
Voiceless souls lost—disappeared
Justice hangs by threads
Very nice! That captures a lot, in just a few words... 🏯😎🏯
Phantom winds of mind
Fleeting cold no mercy here
Leave this room at once
A wonderfully 'chilling' interpretation! Thanks for joining in... 🏯😎🏯
Sleek and silver car
Luxury, smoothness, and style
My dream: a Rolls-Royce
I love it! That's such a fun take on the word 'Phantom'! Haha! They're beautiful cars, too. Especially the earlier models... 🏯😎🏯
Sunday comics ghost
Gray costume so tight
Masked eyes two pistols .

Only the Phantom knows.
Thank you for the prompt, Chris!
Sea level rises
And the watery remains
See a ghost forest

Aural resonance
Constantly bombarding minds
Before streaming was

Phantom limb syndrome
You’re missing your missing leg
It misses you, too
Always behind me:
my mother is a phantom;
dredging witchy vibes
"Witchy vibes." That's a fun description. Haha... 🏯😎🏯
When winter departs
So will I too, like a dream,
a darker angel.
Very nice! The seasons can definitely have a strong affect on us, for sure. Thanks for joining in... 🏯😎🏯
Thank you!
Ghost lover of mine
You hover over my life.
Will you let me go ?
Thank you ,Heidi !
Thank you , Bill !
Thank you , Terry!
Thank you , Jeannine!
You are really scared
When the phantom steals your cash
On April fifteenth!
Ahh, the dreaded Taxman! "There's one for you, nineteen for me", as The Beatles said. That's a fun interpretation of the Prompt. Haha... 🏯😎🏯
Ouch. But I expect it's scarier when the phantom materializes to do an audit!
That's so true! "Be thankful I don't take it all", as they also said in that song. Haha... 🏯😎🏯
It would be. But is there anyone left working at the IRS, or are they phantoms, too?
I guess it's more "efficient" to hire phantoms to do the work...
They look at me, scream -
I tell them not to fear me
and I have no voice
Whisper soft and low
Touch light as a spider's web
You are with me now
Join in the fun, one and all, with your haikus!
Icy fingers scrape
A death-fractured, goose-flesh jig
baby’s soft skin crawls
I still remember
what it was like to hold you,
delicious burger.
