A working mayor, an exhausted president, out-of-touch rich folk: Haikus during the community quarantine

Soon, cabin fever got to me and I lost my motivation, so I set them aside, hoping that they would eventually contribute to the growing body of pandemic literature. If I don't make it through this pandemic, please remember me through these poems. -
