Arc of sure light Sunrise in a flash; Emergent horizon ~~~~~~~~~ Street corner commotion Detour signage shouts; Road excavation ~~~~~~~~~ Fruit stall vendor Familiar offerings tempt; Seasonal fruits ~~~~~~~~~ Emporium crowd Oriental handicrafts; Curious array ~~~~~~~~~ Smoky haze pollutes Grey sunscreen patch; Coughing episodes ~~~~~~~~~ Hunchback old lady Sorting paper debris; Resolute survival ~~~~~~~~~ Sidewalk cobbler Old uncle attending; Sick shoes healer ~~~~~~~~~ Esteemed haiku poet lectures Mindful crowd listen; Takeaway tips ~~~~~~~~~ Dandelion swirls Wind-blown ecstasies; Far away trips ~~~~~~~~~ Nightfall pours darkness Autumn draft chills; Late evening complaint ~~~~~~~~~ Evening news highlights World gone mad; Violence escalates ~~~~~~~~~ Talk of hard times Here, there, everywhere; Cocoon retreat ~~~~~~~~~ Soft tapioca chips Crispy no more; Forgotten leftovers ~~~~~~~~~ Orchid garden visit Flowers in full bloom; Uncertain choice ~~~~~~~~~ Business as usual War is big money; Greedy doom ~~~~~~~~~ Old sepia motifs Poignant China doll; Rouge face haunts ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 23 September 2014 Singapore
