Weekend Haikus

Updated: Apr 14, 2022

Tender morning chirps

Of birds in the canopies

Of concrete jungles.

*

*

*

Smooth cigarette drags

Before dawn when rude engines

Will cheapen its peace.

*

*

*

The sad homeless man

With palms outstretched & empty

But not giving up.

*

*

*

Bloody & flailing’s

The cat in the street… I hope

You didn’t feel it.

*

*

*

Suicidal teens

Waiting for “likes” on Facebook

For validation.

*

*

*

Lawfully mowing

Our thirsty lawns while bitching

About dying bees.

*

*

*

Staring into space,

Lost at sea on my little

Ship in a bottle.

*

*

*

The bum off his meds

Stumbling and mumbling

His psalms of passion.

*

*

*

Haunting sobs of mom

As dad drunkenly stumbles

To forgetful sleep.
