Hi Jack. I found your comment by accident...not receiving any notifications from Soup. Thank you for stopping by, my friend. Regards // paul

That neighborhood doesn't look like a place that inspires much free thought or individuality ... "identity problem" indeed! Excellent senryu.

Thank you, Timothy. Glad you like it! By the way, is there something wrong with Soup? I have spent all morning trying to access it, but to no avail! ~ Regards // paul

Thank you for liking, Kim. It's not the ideal place to live....sort of expect to see all the inhabitants looking the same, too:) Have a lovely day. Hugs // paul

Thank you for visiting, Delice. Not the ideal place to live in, but I suppose to those in dire need of housing it serves them well! Regards // paul

I have seen places a lot like this. I would rather live in a tent! Perfect title you chose for your poem Paul!

Hi Connie! I grew up and still live in the countryside; would never fit in a place like that! Thank you for visiting. Have a lovely day...and enjoy spiritual joy:) // paul

An identity problem it is, Andrea, but would not want to look at it as an identity crisis! I was very lucky with the picture, even though I knew exactly what I was looking for! // paul

Wow that sure would be a problem! I never could live in a cookie cutter community, I 'd be afraid I was sleeping in the wrong house!

I had never heard that song before, so I checked it out and I can relate its social theme to this senryu. Thank you for reading and commenting, Jan. Hugs // paul
