A Room of My Own: Eviction Notice Haiku

eviction notice
thoughts of home entangled
in a cobweb


FYI: This haiku could be read as a prequel to mine below:

eviction night
boxes of my immigrant dreams
wrapped in shadows

Autumn Moon Haiku Journal, 8:1, Autumn/Winter 2024 


Added:

sea haze 
hometown memories
I hold on to


Added: Re-Homing in the Maple Land, XL

morning dew
on the tip of a leaf ...
my lone life
in this promised land
on the edge of Time


Added: Re-Homing in the Maple Land, XLI

abruptly
the sea ends at my feet ...
this dying wave
alone at the edge
of my tenth year in exile


Added: Trump Empire, Inc, XXXIV

in red twilight
one stray trying to outbark
the other ...
the Trump-Musk feud grows
loud, louder and dark, darker


Added: Trump Empire, Inc, XXXV
inspired by the Trump-Musk feud

unseasonal heat ...
one stray chasing the other
chasing its shadow


FYI: Sometimes it's a dog-eat-dog world and the rest of the time it's the other way around.

And HuffPost, June 7: Bill Maher Unveils New Trump-Musk 'Couple Name' As Their Bromance Combusts

“I mean when you think about it, the richest man in the world and the most powerful man in the world, it’s like Godzilla versus King Kong — if Godzilla was on ketamine and King Kong had a combover,” Maher joked to applause during his opening monologue.

“I mean, these guys were so close,” the comedian continued. “It was like ‘Brangelina’ or ‘Bennifer.’ No, you know that Elon and Trump, they had their own couple name — ‘Elump.’ And you know, what happened this week — this has been brewing for a while, OK people?”
