haiku wednesday - the writing monster edition

This week's words are grip, prefer, thread
Ooh, so much potential in these three words. But what, you ask, is the deal with that Writing Monster thing? Another writing prompt, which I encourage all of you to do. Click through that link after you breeze through the haiku today, please! B-Dot and I thank you!

tight grip on loose thread
they prefer control to peace
arms talks unravel


those who prefer love
reach out with hope in darkness
grip the unseen thread


lose your grip, cowboy
taunt life's wild rodeo bull
clowns prefer red thread
