Note: I wrote these seven poems last week after being inspired after watching three apocalyptic short films in seven variations of the same theme. If one changes one or more words it can change the meaning yet stay within the same theme. The reader can decide which poem resonates the most with them and tell me in the comment section below which number it was. If you would be so kind?
I have written all seven poems in the haiku style of poetry and published them on my blog for the first time today, the 21st of October, 2019.

I like this poem! I would choose the 5th version. But just by choosing that one I could immediately hear Gretas voice in my head "how dare you".... ;)
Thanks Magnus for reading and commenting on the poem, version # 5.
Kindest regards,
Mike
