Warning(s): If you've watched InuYasha you should know what's going on.

Disclaimer: I don't think Rumiko Takahashi knows English… Well, fluent English, at least… And I'm sure I'm a redheaded Cajun chick too… So yeah, totally don't own InuYasha...

Other tidbits: I wrote these Chaka poems for the 100_women LiveJournal community. The other three should come soon.

Winter

(Prompt #72)

0000

T'was no doubt 'bout it—

Fifty years had passed you see—

Kikyou was dead.

Her body burned to ashes,

Her soul lurked in Hell,

Her life a feudal legend.

Her bones were interred

Until the ogre arrived,

And plundered them all

To recreate the miko.

And so Kikyou

Became legend once again—

Not as pure, but as tainted.
