Today Carpe Diem have greed. I wanted a picture, and Hieronymus Bosch can show this excellently. The miser and death:
greedy miser
realizes too late
destitute in death
~~
single coin
to pay the ferryman
miser’s end
~~
afterwards
regretting always late
compensate his greed

I love the ferryman image here. Very nice set of haiku.
Thank you. Single coin is
All you need…
Bosch was a painter of the weird, and you have captured his weirdness in your words!
Greed of Shadows
That’s the downside in greed and it’s a tragedy! You’ve opened up
realities Bjorn! Nicely!

I’m commiserating with the miser, because many times I’m too late to realise things too…
Greedy Warriors

A powerful haiku perfectly matched with the painting.

A clever and strong set, even with the dark colours. The “single coin” one is my favourite among them.
Awesome series on greed. I love the painting by Bosch
