A Room of My Own: Lingering Smell Haiku

shithole countries
the lingering smell
of his breath

Go Trump graffiti

  1. American Carnage: New Life in Trumpland

    Go Trump graffiti
    a stray dog
    marking his spot

    trumping Trump
    my Mexican parrot
    lifts up its voice

    election night
    a scream from the other side
    of the fence

    Trump victory
    the sky bursting
    with crows

    post-election blues
    my sister dressed in black
    from head to toe

    Thanksgiving dinner
    Trump hats and Clinton stickers
    left on the doormat

    misty night
    red states, blue states

    first false dawn
    Donald Trump Toppled
    on realnews.com

    bald eagle's cry
    cut off
    Inauguration Day

    a neon sign
    on the White House roof:
