Haiku Club Challenge #1 illness

A chapter in the book Haiku Club Challenges, Book II

Haiku (putrid healthcare bill)

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 
putrid healthcare bill 
takes from the poor for the rich-
reverse Robin Hood



 



Recognized


The kigo is June 22, 2017 or summer, the day the healthcare bill was presented to the Senate.

It's about illness because it will affect the ill people in our country, especially the poor.

President Trump promised he would not cut Medicare, Medicaid, or social security but he is a liar. The healthcare bill is the worse bill in American history and it's a crime. Medicaid will suffer huge cuts in much needed services like mental health, nursing homes, maternity leave, etc....





Everyone is welcome to add haiku to this book. You keep a copy in your portfolio and you keep all your reviews. JuRst click on ADD CHAPTER.

The Haiku Club is a group of fanstory international poets who enjoy writing and learning haiku. You don't need to be an expert and participating in the club will improve your haiku skills. You will be writing and reviewing haiku better in no time. We meet at a chatroom called 'teamspeak3' where we can talk to each other.

I announce a new haiku at the Forum's Challenges room every Sunday. Look for us!

I teach haiku in fanstory and I have published several haiku books but I am still learning. There is a lot to learn. Short Japanese poetry is an amazing poetic form.... you can say so much with just a few words.... it's challenging and fun.

If you have questions about the Haiku Club or the Challenges, please do not hesitate to ask me. Just send me a private message. Joining the club is easy ... just ask! It's free.

Thank you for reading.
