Haiku Challenge for Jan. 29: ‘Post’

Today’s haiku challenge:

Today's @baffled #HaikuChallenge: any haiku you like, as long as it has the word 'post' in it….

— baffled (@baffled) January 29, 2021

My style is the five/seven/five syllable structure. Here are my five haiku poems:

post my release from
this subterranean hell
catacomb cobwebs.

post my release from
the submersion of my chest
coughing up darkness.

post my release from
the blade of the guillotine
the rope in my hands.

post my release from
the flames licking at my face
despite a warm touch.

post my release from
the approaching precipice
and let me float down.
