Another set of haiku Carpe Diem prompt is hero, to me the word hero has berm misused so much, and has been hijacked to celebrate war-lords and murderers. True heroes rarely get a statue.

  1. It’s so true what you’re stating here. Only great heroes get their statue, but the man and women who are the real heroes are getting never a statue. Great cascading haiku set Bjorn. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on ‘hero’ here on Carpe Diem.
