supermarket haiku
I.
Here: milk in a can
I put it in your cart, then
Remove it. A joke.
II.
This bad broccoli
Is ill with wilt and brown spots
Can I have for free?
III.
Trader Joe’s grocery:
Once was a revelation;
Turn’d sour as kefir.
IV.
I will buy these Ritz
For a time perhaps troubled
by protein’s texture.
V.
This gray fleur de sel
Costs eleven dollars flat
It is powdered lint.
V.
Almond M&M’s
The Bachelor’s new mistake
Shortest check-out line.
VI.
Butterfingers here
Dropp’d a stupid jar of pears
Then six more toppled.
