In response to Ronovan’s Haiku Challenge #63…”Stag” & “Noise”. This one was quite a challenge, but it got the old brain clicking, which is a good thing on a rainy Monday morning! So…here’s my take…Poor deer. 😦

Ears perked toward the noise,
the stag became a statue
on some hunter’s wall.

Freezing in the face of danger doesn’t always work unfortunately. You have a great double image in your haiku!

Just talking with my SO last night about the bizarre ritual of mounting the animals one has killed (which is another issue in the bizarre zone). Kudos to you for taking the prompt to address this, in my opinion, barbaric practice.

So true…creepy too in how they are frozen to look “natural”. Thanks for the complement! 😊
