A poetic experiment. Drop your local politics haiku.
You don't need any context but you can add if you like. If your haiku is on the national/international level, it will be thumbed down. Nothing about presidents, prime ministers, Congress, or parliament. This experiment might fail but I'm trying to keep it civil.

Raised rents, pushed families
out of childhood homes; they still
stand empty, silent.
Beyond local crime,
to vote against your own self?
Shooting your own foot.

Prison awaits you.
