a series of gloomy haikus

---

snow hating haiku

please go away snow
I do not want you right now
dismal white wasteland

oral surgery haiku

sharp tools in my mouth
valium isn't helping
open wider please

sad mom haiku

mom is forgotten
pick up your phone when I call
my heart can't take this

depressing dream haiku

daughter ignores me
while I stand in my own yard
she stands with her dad

anxiety haiku

I can't feel my feet
my mind is spinning what ifs
it hurts to breathe deep

end of the world haiku

bad news tomorrow
each day pandemic gets worse
death has a loud knock

government sucks haiku

lies are getting old
the system is broken now
while we fight they win

ghosts haiku

no more visits please
how many times must I sage
be gone already
