An Anonymous Crown

Apocalypse Haiku by Casey Fatchett

Insomnia sucks
Especially when reversed
Waking up early

Okay to eat it?
Brushing dust off the package
Expired three years ago

Quick commute today
Easily managed the stairs
Pants are optional

Have to take a s**t
But there’s no toilet paper
Damn apocalypse

Walls are closing in
No privacy anymore
Love my family

going stir crazy
all the days blend together
going stir crazy

time is a construct
pretty sure I showered today
or was that last week?

Anxious screams split air
hot tears streaming down my face
Cutting my wife’s hair
