Haiku Friday: Zombie apocalypse
There is so much these days that just seems like it is out of a movie-- usually a horror movie or some kind of dystopian fantasy. I walk around downtown Minneapolis and it is so quiet you expect to see a tumbleweed blow past, or a wolf trot by. Which might happen soon.
The picture above isn't from a zombie movie; it's from a protest in Ohio against government restrictions intended to limit the spread of COVID-19. But zombie movie and reality seem to be getting closer each day.
So, let's haiku about that whole mess today. Here, I will go first:
Crazy white people
Screaming at a tall building
Now appearing here!
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!

Let them see themselves.
What is happening to them?
Need to meditate.......
[#2 version, replace 'see', 'them' & 'meditate' with 'ask', 'me', 'medicate']

I don't have a link to the photo at the moment, but coyotes have been strolling around downtown Chicago. Wolves would really be cool, though.
Mark said a limerick, the tipsy cousin of haiku, was okay.
The status quo ante the virus
The mob thought clearly desirous,
But their braying and coughing
Sent virus drops sloughing,
And marked a few there expirous.

Two more limericks:
The siege of virus corona
Is leaving us feeling alona,
Keep your distance, however,
Whatever the weather,
Or you’ll be on your own in a coma.
This act of titanic stupidity
Will only increase our morbidity,
While Lewis does blather
And causes a lather,
It’s a dangerous act of quiddity.

OK, another one......(had to write in full my "#2", from above)
Let them ask themselves,
What is happening to me?
Need to medicate!
