Here's a haiga from January 20, 2017 that I'm reprising today. Now, nearly four years later, we know that what we once thought was a mask, is a full-out evil visage. Sadly, in the time of a pandemic, we now wish he would wear a real Covid mask.

Un-Happy Haiga Day!

In recognition of the loss of Ruth Bader Ginsberg--civil rights advocate extraordinaire.

Ruth

The woman wore
crocheted net gloves--
clearly, an anti-fashion
fashion tease.
Her gloves were a
tribute to the skill of
generations of women
who created beauty
and complexity
within a net of society.
She knew full well
that one day, the net
would be turned
inside out to release
the little fishes and
snag the leviathan.
