Promises Poem by anais vionet

Promises

Rating: 5.0


(a series of haikus)

I will not woo
until this virus is cured
or there are vaccines.

I refuse to kick
my brother until there's
some police reform.

I won't fight with
my mom 'til we focus on
the environment.

I'm going to hold
my breath til the election
- go, go, sleepy Joe!

I won't buy any
makeup until - heck, who wears
makeup anymore? ?

I'm giving up
pizza... wait, no I'm NOT.
Forget about THAT!

*promises are subject
to cancellation - any time
- without prior notice*

Another good & amusing haiku sequence. Perhaps consider " at any time."
