“To Catch”
He lifted a net
The plan now taking effect,
centaurs unaware.

“Ambush”
Swords lift from their grasp
As magic yanks weapons free,
Dark mage’s plan wins.

I like the stories in these two. I’ve got a wonderful image in my mind from the second, and the first – I’m not sure whether to warn the centaurs or not.

Me either. It depends if the centaurs are good or bad. Kind of makes me think of Narnia.
I’m glad these created good story images, thank you. 🙂

Ooooh, naughty naughty narrator in #1! He should learn to leave those poor centaurs alone! 😉
*lol* Kidding, of course. Both haikus are very good, and very fantasy-ish. They actually seem to parallel one another, showing different sides of the ambush. #1 could be the mage’s, and #2 could be the centaurs. Was that intended? Or did you write them as two separate, unconnected pieces?

Hahaha! I don’t think he’s in his right mind, because centaurs are quite tough. I wouldn’t want to face their wrath! 😀
At first I began them as separate, but then I thought a connection between the two would be fun. So it’s a bit of both: connected, but also can be separate if the reader prefers. 🙂
