Horror Haiku Club Prompt
April 10 - Osculum Infame
Translated as Shameful Kiss, it was said that every witch must kiss…
Your prompt is OSCULUM INFAME.
I would rather kiss
The devil’s ass, than the ad-
-dornments of the church
… the Devil’s ass at the beginning of each Sabbath.
"If you want to know if she loves you so/It's in her kiss..."
In the dim-lit room where rumors of witchcraft brewed, the infamous trial unfolded. The accusers demanded she kiss the devil's behind, as proof of her allegiance.
Instead, with a mischievous glint in her eye, she called forth her black cat, Sꪊlem. With one swift command, the feline licked the devil, causing a burst of laughter to echo through the court.
That day, the devil was defeated not by a kiss, but by a cat's tongue.

the Haiku:
ꅐ
Witch's cat steps forth,
Sꪊlem licks, devil blinks twice, Courtroom bursts in mirth.
ꪻ
Shadow feline's dare,
A single lick to disarm,
Witch's clever snare.
ꪶ
Laughter shakes the dark,
Sꪊlem's tongue, a subtle arc, Witch's mark, a lark.
