Mission Accomplished Tanka Poem by Chen-ou Liu

Mission Accomplished Tanka



One Hundred Twenty-NinthEntry, Coronavirus Poetry Diary
written in response to this real news, Oct.28: The White House's Office of Science and Technology listed "ending the COVID-19 pandemic" as one of the top accomplishments of the Trump administration's first term.

Bush stood proudly
under "Mission Accomplished"
I recall
that lingering smell
of my friend's patriot socks

FYI: The United States has now reached an average of 60,000 daily coronavirus cases.
