Narcolepsy

Sleeping in my bed
Is my greatest achievement
It *rarely* happens

A meditation on protests

My body my life.
I hate quarantine I'm out.
Oops, I got covid.

Noms

Coffee. Orange Juice.
PBJ. Soup. Cheesy Whiz.
Quarantine diet.

A mother's plea, by Karen

Kate and Anna Jane
Please please please please go to sleep
I would like a drink

My quarantine conundrum

I'm eating healthy

Run every day. Yoga!

Drunk every night

Mirror mirror on the zoom

I need a haircut.

And lip injections? Neck stretch! 

Iron those creases 

Food Pioneer

Meals in quarantine...

You're desperate. Tortilla?

Turkey. Cheese. Salsa! 

How to Fast Track Your Already-In-Progress TMJ

Resting bitch face--no!
Hold neutral expression, please.
Hours on display.

Girl.

Didn't know I made
such crazy faces during
work meetings. Thanks, Zoom.

I'd Hang Out Here Too If I Were You

Owners' kids at home--
Neighbor's cat takes refuge in
my yard and destroys

I Just Can't Stare at This Screen Any Longer

Behind at work but
Eighteen books in thirty days
(Mostly, they were dumb)

Self-reflective haiku composed from Katie's perspective, 9pm Sunday

Drinking with a friend 

Dummy didn't charge his phone

Now drinking alone

Quarantine Haiku

By Mary Barrett

Why am I shouting?

Video meetings, not new!

You can hear me, right?

Elastic waistband

A bit tighter than before

Get your steps, not snacks.

Work from home realness: a haiku

Work from home the same
Trapped in my existing jail
The choice is the key

My kids' haiku from our daily walk

Group effort:

A family walk
Is super duper fun
Goal is 10,000 steps.

Mina:

The rain goes drip drip
They can drop on top of you
My head is wet now

Vivian:

Foxes are so cute
Nothing could beat them at all
I wouldn't leave them

Henry:

It's fine to jaywalk
But only if you aren't seen
Sneakiness is key

Coronavirus

My head feels weird or does it?

Hypochondria

My time to shine is
When ordering take out is
My civic duty
