MAX Train Haikus

Written by a commuter

[maxhaikus]

Backpack space hoarding

Elderly man driven off

Young man regretful

[maxhaikus]

Old Town Chinatown

Diversity among bums

The rest: new and white

[maxhaikus]

We stopped on the bridge

Imagination took flight

Turns out nothing's wrong

[maxhaikus]

I left my phone home

It's free to repose, unmissed

Like a grandmother

[maxhaikus]

Holiday weekend

Four days apart yet no hugs

These strangers and me

[maxhaikus]

we're getting somewhere,

right? you thought i was a man.

what a compliment.

[maxhaikus]

The only people Who speak on public transit Are uncivilized

[maxhaikus]

Jogging, an odd sport Just run when you go places Remember fresh clothes

[maxhaikus]

There must be something Artists can do to prevent Metal statue rust

[maxhaikus]

Your hat looks handstitched Do you envy its maker Stiff fingers and all?

[maxhaikus]

I had the day off But here I am anyway Trapped by past spending

[maxhaikus]

Look at us dolled up Going to work or brothel So independent

[maxhaikus]

They say 'I love you'

Unaware that we old folks

See imminent doom

[maxhaikus]

Yes, I pick my nose

When was I ever ashamed

of my creations?

[maxhaikus]

Latte in my hand

Is there to remind me of

Our equality

[maxhaikus]

even gravity

caters to man's laziness

garbage rolls downhill
