Haiku on Covid-19

K V Dominic

 

Congregation prays:

God save us from the pandemic

God: I am helpless

 

Man: Aren’t we your dearest?

God: It’s your ego tells you so

All my creations darling to me

 

Man complains to God:

Are we fated to live with mask?

God: Enough you polluted air

 

Dawn now echoes birds’ chirps:

Thank you, thank you, thank you God

For restoring our rights

 

Coronavirus to man:

A lesson for your conceit

Be humble and kind

 

Man to coronavirus:

What harm have we done to you?

Virus: you called us

 

Earth to human beings:

Except you all are happy now

Reward for your crimes

 

God to human beings:

Mask you wear is punishment

For masking in your lives

 

Little boy to mom:

You punished for using cell phone

Now force for online classes

 

Earth to human beings:

You wash your hands for survival

Crimes’ blood still remains

 

Infants wail to guilty adults:

Pandemic is your own product

We are drowned in it

 

Animals warn humans:

Exploit more you perish more

Creator protects us

 

Mother Earth to quarryman:

How ruthless you dynamite

Mother’s breasts that fed you!

 

River to her mother sea:

Man raped and stabbed head to foot

Threw his waste on me

 

Plight of human being:

Social being now antisocial

Result of his karma

 

Members of same group

Bound to keep distance each other:

Reward of leagued crimes

 

Animals to humans:

You are caged and we are free

Tit for tat, mind you!
