APOCALYPSE
( a haiku on bodegas of the NYC )
East Harlem
Anxious me
Just wanted to get home and feel safe.
.
Empty Streets
All the shops shut
Am I here on a wrong day or witnessing an apocalypse?
.
On a mission to find a deli
Plastic bags whipped by the wind
Alas a deli!
.
Empty Shelves
Where did all the food go?
Were you robbed or just out of stock?
Heineken and Smokes
No food?
Maybe you need to restock.

CCTV Camera
Pointing at it, clicking pictures & making faces
Just two friends being silly.
Rapper’s Chips, no JuiceWRLD?!
Wait, that has 6 syllables
Maybe I suck at writing haikus? Do I?
.
Crunch to Munch
Only one left on the aisle
He is a loner just like me.
.
Milk chocolate m&m’s
I could eat them all day
Haters gonna hate.
Blue Gatorade
I was dehydrated
Grabbed a bottled and billed it out.
.
Upon my exit…
The guy at the reception gave me a smile.
I felt at ease maybe for a while..
