Creeping, deadened, weight,
Icy poison swallows me
Only my eyes move

Immigration Protests and Political Tension in the United States
**Immigration Protests and Political Tension in the United States** Immigration has become one of the most important political issues for Americans in 2026. Recent incidents involving federal immigration enforcement sparked nationwide protests, with thousands of people demanding accountability and policy reform. Many protesters are calling for limits on the power of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, while others support stronger border security. The debate has deeply divided public opinion and intensified discussions in Congress. As the country moves closer to the midterm elections, immigration is expected to play a decisive role in shaping voter attitudes and influencing future laws that affect border control, civil rights, and national security.

I like this. Everything fits together so perfectly— the title, the choice of art, and of course the words you chose for the haiku. The last line is my favorite “only my eyes move” not dead, but at the mercy of the poisoner.
Oooo, that was dark. Loved your Haiku!
Love it
