Journal of Literature, Poetry, and Haiku

Three Literary Haiku by Margaret D. Stetz

1/30/2023

 
Picture
I.
“On Virginia Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway”
 
June day in London,
Death beckons at a party--
Will she choose to live?
 
II.
“On Oscar Wilde’s Lady Windermere’s Fan”
 
Trading epigrams,
Seeing stars from the gutter--
Who is “bad” or “good”?
 
III.
“On Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House”
 
A toy no longer,
Nor a wife or a mother--
She slams the door shut.


Margaret D. Stetz is the Mae and Robert Carter Professor of Women's Studies at the University of Delaware, as well as being a poet whose work has appeared recently in a variety of journals, including Dark Matter, Review Americana, Kerning, Mono, West Trestle Review, A Plate of Pandemic, Azure, Existere, and the Journal of Women, Gender, and Families of Color.
