Malice


SENSATIONAL HAIKU
'malice'

5/7/5

MALICE

That worm in the soul
Eating its evil way out.
The desire to hurt.

DAMNED SPOT!
(A lot of story in a few words!)

Out, out, damned spot! The murder's done!
No more visits from my boss's son!
Plunging in the knife was lots of fun!
I hope these sheets bleach in the sun!

Nice haiku, it's a bit creepy, but it's worth reading.

"That worm in the soul" - great line, and exactly what malice is! Well done!
