Foul mouthed grave bride,

Peppered rum giftee spitting

Yes, "I do", Voodoo

.....

Author's Note: This haiku is based on Maman Brigitte, one of the most important loas, known for her association with death and cemeteries. Brigitte is the only loa depicted as white and is believed to have come from Ireland not Africa.
