Congratulations! So few literary magazines ever make it to 20. Best wishes for the next 20.

sleep-deprived
due to nightmares about zombies
stumbling through my day

(a true story, albeit not in the same league as your haiku)

Yeah, my parents said "PJs" as well.

Thanks for the comments and haiku. I'm not entirely sure why I went with the British spelling of "pyjamas" and yet chose the American word "laundromat" (instead of laundrette), but I did think about it, and it just came down to those were the words I preferred in each case. Give me time and I'll probably be saying "washing" rather than "laundry", too!

drunken kung fu
the falling leaf veers and twists

(Hope it doesn't seem too conceited to respond to my own photo! I've been having such fun reading all the other poems, I couldn't resist. Even though I have a photohaiku blog, I pretty much suck at haiku, so I didn't even attempt it here.)

winter road

the asphalt
fades to white
from all the salt

ice stitches
jack-knifed feathers
in the ditch

phragmites rocks
in the wind
from passing trucks

Back from the hike, boots caked with pollen
