Papa's SENRYU (Batch Number 3)

The afternoon heat
Feels worse, after the
News says it's "so hot"...
- - - - - - - - - -
Mowing the lawn,
Even after 20 years,
Is unchanged -- still a pain.
- - - - - - - - - -
The border between fantasy,
And science fiction,
Is where, exactly?
- - - - - - - - - -
Despite best-intentioned
Attempted rescue
The transplanted flower wilts.
- - - - - - - - - -
Suburban matrons' happiness:
Stretch yoga pants and
Boxes of diet brownies.
