Maleficium 42,000
For the Women of Europe
Breezeblocks become flesh
Blazen waves sweep in scorched lungs
“Witch!”, they all cry, “Witch”.
•
Horse now lame? Childless?
Back hunched from this blighted life?
You know the answer.
•
Sink: you’re innocent.
No one will congratulate—
Angelfishes weep.
•
Float: you’re free. For now.
Six blissful seconds before
The waves become flames.

Resist unholy Antidisestablishment- arianism XXXXXX For John and Paul's Three-Word Haiku/Senryu Unofficial Challenge Before anyone can issue a challenge to the form of my haiku, let me set forth my defense that NOWHERE in the rules do the worthy judges state that each line must consist ofa word. And I quote: "Must be a haiku/senryu consisting of just three words, following the usual syllable demands of 5-7-5."
