Sign of the times

((a haiku sequence) 


        again, she tidies
        the almost empty desk
        another lay-off


        job fair 
        the line keeps growing
        longer and longer

 
        foreclosed house
        the children’s swing
        stops swinging

 
        tent city
        they welcome
        the newcomers
