Haiku Horizons


Haibun

just twenty two
a beautiful girl
her life destroyed
because
she fell in love
we don't stone them
we kill them
in other ways
sisterhood?
must have been
taking a sabbatical
that year

she made a mistake
she drifts from year to year with
no prospects in sight

    oh there are def more painful ways than stoning...that last a very long time...sisterhood, or even our humanity seem out the window much of the time.

    Stoning is inhuman but her life is more painful than stoning.

    A slow and very public death. Doesn't make me all that proud to be a people.
