LATE-BREAKING HAIKU!

We interrupt our regularly scheduled derision of the Justice Society for this breaking news:


WONDER WOMAN IS ATTEMPTING SUICIDE!!!

"Robot plane fly fast!
Dive for the ground at full speed!"
says Wonder Woman.


I'll say this for her; it takes substantial presence of mind to compose haiku (even partial ones) while committing aeronautic suicide. They don't call her Wonder Woman for nothing.

What drove her to such desperate straits? Her conflict with her mother? The delay of her movie? The death of Ellie Wood Walker? I've been trying to ask her, but she's not answering the mental radio!

But we know she's listening to it; we must use it to save her!

Please, for the the love of Zeus, compose a haiku that addresses the cause of Wonder Woman's distress or, better yet, convinces her that life is still worth living. Hera, guide my stanzas!

It's okay, Wondy.
It could be worse; at least you've
avoided Countdown!

Poor Wonder Woman;
Black Canary's getting hitched.
Suffering Sappho!

Thanks for the haiku, but please tell me you plan on finding an Hourman signature. Thanks again for such an enjoyable blog.

Mind the fire, Wondy!
Say fire in one syllable,
and that line will scan.
