Haiku Oomph

Jog at skybridge
Dusk descends swiftly;
Deep darkness sums


Side by side we
Stride brisk and fast;
Stop clock moments


A neighbour smiles
Mobile cellphone chat;
Our feet speed away


Evening echoes
Cicada serenade;
Hazy ambience floats


Thoughts meander
Nothing to say;
Meal pack detour


Dinner for two
Me and you;
Silent melodrama


Digital TV
Sitcom sequesters;
Lavish drama serials


News in brief:
War, death, violence;
What else is new?


Bank account update
Cash flow and bills;
Thank God for money


Word for word
Sorry tales attest;
What happened where?


Mailbox excavation
Letters in a pile;
Billing gratitude
