Transcript of “Pandemic Haikus”
Here’s another haiku from the online art project called Social Distancing Haiku and You.
It’s by Stephen DeLauro.
At 7 o’clock, sound of many hands clapping.
Not alone.
Hooray!
Right.
So this is the people applauding the health care workers and the people on the front lines of the pandemic.
Yes.
Everyone’s going out there to express just this minimum amount of public appreciation.
I mean, it’s the least you can do, but it’s a start.
Yes.
This is what’s so wonderful about haiku, right?
You have a whole image, whole picture.
So few syllables, and to explain it takes pages.
Exactly.
