Peace from the Sirens
(Wrote the other week in a zoom poetry reading after hearing a Indian Poet describe about how they are constantly hearing ambulances going past their home with ill people from pandemic. I aimed for a haiku with this but the poem decided otherwise and it became a closeish Haiku instead)
No Ambulances
you long for peace
from the sirens

A short study
studying her quiet face asleep,
i can only guess how
far she has travelled.

NB. I think this is a haiku but as I am rubbish at counting the whatever's for it, I
am just gonna call this a short poem.
