Grandview Apartments Haiku (U.S.A.)

space, A.C., paper
pens, pain, quiet, world-wide web,
free oft empty hours

outside's a city
safer for people with cars;
I haven't got one

barking dogs in yards
hobo hustlers on corners,
divine blue sunshine

each empty lot boasts
wild flower gardens to match
The Sistine Chapel

no whisky these days,
no real rule, no judgement but
no whisky these days

remarkable path
life's been for me: bad stomach,
aches and pains, soul scars

I agree with Insert: some nice phrases.
