Crucifixion (Haiku) by Mr Pig

Romans laughing, wine saturates holy bread, Judas eats his supper.

I think you misunderstand the concept of a haiku, thay are meant to be short. The point or purpose is there for you to see but you are missing the point so many others have comprehended.
1) Romans laughing ( as they did in the childrens bible at christs sufferance on the cross.
2) Wine saturates holy bread = wine is blood bread is body of christ, blood pours from christs wounds.
3) juas eats supper as christ is dying, that is the irony judas eats supper again after the last supper, the traitor consumes his saviour.
Patience is required when perusing a haiku, it is not in design meant to be an instant fix ofunderstanding, this has a meaning if you look for it.
