Coda in the Form of Three Haiku
by Gary Hardaway
Nature Speaks to Mankind Haiku
Fuck your joy. Fuck your
sorrow. Fuck everything
about you and your kind.
Human Destiny Haiku
Nature has its way:
before annihilation,
humiliation.
Last Human Breath Haiku
Picture the end. See
the final gestures. You won't
have seen how it feels.
Yes. All lines cross here. *
Enuf to drive a man to drink. *
C'mon, Nature, don't
hold back. How do you Really feel about us talkin' apes?
( A 5/7/7*)
(The auto-formatting messed up my lines. I tried)

And, we don't need no stinking Nostradamus.
Those last two especially.*
Thank you, Darryl,
and David, and Gary.
