promises

promises, like prayers or talismans to an indifferent universe.

(a series of haikus)

I will not woo

until this virus is cured

or there are vaccines.

I refuse to kick

my brother until there’s

some police reform.

I won't fight with

my mom 'til we focus on

the environment.

I’m going to hold

my breath til the election

- go, go, sleepy Joe!

I won't buy any 

makeup until - heck, who wears

makeup anymore??

I’m giving up

pizza... wait, no I’m NOT.

Forget about THAT!

*promises are subject

to cancellation - any time

- without prior notice*

You're always welcome :) That really cured my mood. And I laughed after reading the last stanza.
