John Lawless Poet Senryu

Coffee and Consternation

Coffee and Consternation

karmic confusion
bitter wreckage of the past
a vicious wind


Cardinal’s pay cut
today’s second collection
Palm Sunday


a note to the Pope
leadership by example
SELL THE HAT


The Little Red Hen
reopening her kitchen
now hiring


Atlas once shrugged
now he throws up his hands
shouting WTF


prognosticator
all hail Chicken Little
the sky IS falling


the Covid Big Bad Wolf
can no longer HUFf and PUFF
it blows his mask off


while wearing a mask
it’s hard to be a vamp
in a nudist camp
