A few Haikus based on the Greek myth of Pandora's Box:
My dear Pandora,
Please do not open this box.
I’m trusting you. –Zeus
Curiosity
Overtaking all my thoughts
I must open it.
The box is opened
All the spirits locked away
Escape. Close it quick.
HOPE: all that is left.
All else has escaped into
The world down below.
Disease rids the streets
Sickening all that cross its
Path. No cure is found.
Envy is out and
About. Infecting every
Person around it.
Greed is spreading all
Around. Taking over all
Surrounding people.
