Today’s Haiku

We come, make changes, go

Each of us has a job despite

Built-in obsolescence

Deer on the roadside

White patches in its fur

No need for winter clothes

DAY 18 OF POETRY MONTH Medical Researcher

Check the mice encased in cages

They all have viruses in stages

Give C & D some tetrycycline

And E & F some extra-mycline

I’d like to cure each mouse that’s ill

The rest of them I’ll have to kill.
