Urban Haiku
This week's topic at One Deep Breath is Urban Haiku.
My memory of my hometown, and the trip home from school:
From town on the bus
Pass jail, asylum, graveyard,
houses in neat rows.

What an orderly view! Thanks for your comment on my planned closure ritual. It makes such good sense, I'm not sure why I didn't think of it sooner. I'm the one who in 1987 threw myself a divorce party and invited all my friends.
What a colorful assortment to see on your way. Very creative haiku!
excellent :)
I could see those houses in rows as I was reading. This is nice.
boy, that's a tough sounding part of town you come from! but sometimes most urban life feels like that.
great haiku, superb imagery.
Greenish Lady, I love this haiku, wording so clear and resonant that I can "see" the whole scene in my mind's eye and partake of your childhood journey too.
That's urban alright :) Lovely Haiku.
So well put. I loved your Baggage story too. That 'letting go' trick is a powerful thing.
what a great deal of imagery with so few words!
Great piece. Two places that are ok to be, with a bunch that are not ok to be sandwiched in between. :)
