Haiku Friday: Coronavirus!


Even as it affects the economy, restricts travel, and worms its way into our dreams, there isn't much we can do about the Coronovirus. But we can haiku about it! 

Here, I will go first:

It's deep in our heads
But it is oh so tiny!
Coronavirus!

Now it is your turn. Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!


Comments:
I'm supposed to care
I suppose I will, later--
Sunny dogs nap on
 
Yes I have a cold.
No exposure or symptoms
of COVID-19.
 
Weird Al Yancovich
Lets us down in time of need
Won't do "My Corona"
 
I have a fever,
Ex post facto nasal drip.
Pass the Tylenol.
 
Image reminds me
of a Christmas ornament
Styrofoam and pins
 
Our freezer is stocked
Ready for a quarantine
Still need to buy booze
 
Fenced in, quarantined
I watch the teens dance in masks
Spirit inspires
 
Pariah cruise ships
Claustrophobic death boats. Stuck
On an airplane, coughing

Seatmates. Usual
lunch spot -- music library--
Too warm with phlegm-y

Undergrads. Outside,
open spaces, brisk air, is
The only place to be.

 
Past experience
tells me at four days people
will go stir crazy


*********

Thankful for many
acres and outdoor chores
to keep me busy

Set to place my mulch
order. That can occupy
me for sev'ral days
