Mangled Haiku

" Mangled Haiku "

by Suzán Jiván

I

Finding diversions
after all the apathy
collective numbing

II

Equally depressed
straight to the general fund
as mangled corpses

III

Repeated trauma
deliberate distraction
just a learned response

IV

Debt-limit stalemate
all or most of the money
into the hacking

V

Recorded carnage
decapitated body
the face of horror

VI

Trauma, impotence
wrong doing at two tabloids
buried in mass graves...
