The corona haiku

 


Life dictated by 

fever and saturation 

readings – sheer terror.

Note
Some reality from my battle with the virus. A bloody oxygen reading of less than 90%, so the doctors say, means you should be hospitalized.

Hell hath no fury

greater than a 
next door neighbor with a 
hammer drill

Note
The truth and nothing but, first hand. This man won't stop until there's a zillion holes in every wall. Here’s to William Congreve who is misquoted here.

The brutal reality haiku

If it's not fake, it's
most likely war, injustice,
fraud or betrayal.


– Leonard Blumfeld (© 2017)

Note
A somewhat pessimistic view of what’s going on in the world.
What brought that on?
Looking at the news, I suppose, suppressing the few hopeful items that are reported on now and then as well as advertising, which suggests that everything is fun and games if you buy the right products.
