Daver Austin Poet Haiku

Little People

LITTLE PEOPLE

a rustling outside?
(just leaves in the breeze)
                snickering

my shot of jack daniels
gone!
tiny burp    giggle

my daughter 
    crying
      her tea set missing

coffee spilled
        cat hisses
footprints on my toast

invisible?
no
very quick!

strange -
smoke out the chimney
of her doll house
