Haunting Haikus

From my narrow cell
I wish that I'd grasped at dreams
When I could still grasp

Shielded from all storms
I long for the sensation
Of rain on my face

How she would have loved
A bouquet of roses then
More than a wreath now

Spirits and specters
Are not found in the graveyard
Only dirt and bones

Foolish epitaphs
Vainly issue a challenge
They can never win
