I'm posting an original poem every Friday for a year. I've lost track of the # this is. When I rode the bus I wrote a haiku every day. This was from during a flu outbreak.

Bus haiku #4


Your face: pale as winter beach.

Your chapped mouth: a cove, small sailors ready.

Your cough: a thousand ships set sail.

Riding busses have such writing potential. It's a break in a day we need.
