Brexit Haiku

by Umit Singh Dhuga

 

1. Memory

breaks, recedes, then swells:
flotsam of memorials
in Westminster’s cowls.

2. Pantry

The gauge siphon slipped:
water for washing up spilled
and spoiled stockpiled spelt.

3. Loose Shy

flailed around our stumps
but scored a century stamped
at the boundary ropes.

4. Autumnal Insomnia

awakes us and Leave
fills the space sleeplessness leaves. 
Fall’s precipitous.
