When loons run the asylum

Every day I love you less and less, UK,

as you obsess over the desperate,

desperate to deny them passage or rights.

The first nation to deny asylum outright

proudly flies the flag of its dominion,

mocking its subjects into praise of this hate.

I fret for the future, fear for our fate. 

"Capitalism and greed", Johnson haiku #1

Then we're all agreed.

Greed and capitalism;

Conservative creed.

Grammar haiku #1

Alice and I dined

She gave an apple to me

I ate myself sick

Haikus #1-6: Leopards and peacocks

1

The leopard skulks 'neath
this tree my banquet table

purring with delight.

2

These boughs are laden

with fruits that one day will fall

and I must follow.

3

A swarming carcass

tells of prowling predators

alert to my steps.

4

Precariously

the struggle intensifies

this desperate heat.

5

Against the dust brown

bright peacock feathers foretell

the coming monsoon.

6

The thirst to survive

quenched by thunderous downpours

of ominous clouds.

Twitter poem #1

Nuance newly found,

free of twitter's inane chains;

black and white charade.
