Five Haiku for the End of History by Kelly Jones

Five Haiku for the End of History
Kelly Jones

*

what apocalypse
who cares the bees are dying
still there is the moon

*

do not cat-call me
as I walk alone to work
be ready to fight

*

1996 called
from a landline and wants a
refund on optimism

*

the problem with holes
is where to put all the junk
dug up out of them

*

I heard the monsters
in outer space were singing
we are the future


Kelly is a queer poet who is studying in the MLIS program, with dreams of being either a librarian or vagabond in the near-ish future.
