Haiku Sketches by Jordan Caulk

trip to the mailbox—
bills
and a bouquet

returning from school—
hedgehog
still in the bathtub

i give the frost
on my bedroom window
a smile

what started as an O
turned into
an abomination

bruises
from last night . . .
you don't remember

locked in my room
pretending
to be busy

hypochondriac
he won't go near her
in fear of catching cooties
