Writing Wellington: Twenty Years of Victoria University Writing Fellows

1 Haunui

1 Haunui

Haunui's the name—Big Wind,
    at your service. Caught them
        at it, didn't I? My woman
and Weku, my best mate—
    not any more, he's not.
        Trusted them, you know—him
and her who brought me so much
    pain. Caught them red-handed—if
        you'll pardon the expression—
at Waimapihi, a sacred spring
    whose waters immediately drained
        away for shame, for shame.
