Corona Haiku VIII

Hell is The Others.
Coughs heard at the house party -
Sartre's words ring true.

Corona Haiku VII

Covered in plastic,
Workers wheel covered bodies -
Morgue as meat locker.

Corona Haiku VI

Worshippers chanting,
The pastor praising God's cure.
From the back pew: coughs.

Corona Haiku V

A nurse, exhausted,
Slouched and holding the cold hand
Of a grandmother.

Corona Haiku IV

The Stay Home Order -
No one told the homeless man
Dozing at the park.

Corona Haiku III

Cloudless sunset sky,
Suggesting hope and questions -
Alone on a walk.

Corona Haiku II

Pandemic evening,
Signs on restaurant doors: "closed" -
No rats in dumpsters.
