Drowsy NotesWaiting time
Loiters long;
Tentative tact
~~~~~~~~~
Unfinished
Block booking;

Cranky moods

Burning smog
Hazy indiscretions;
Madness percolates
~~~~~~~~~
Sad and sorry
Same old story;
Sooty somehow
~~~~~~~~~
Cash and...

VoiceListen now
Morning arrives;
Mystic voice
~~~~~~~~~
Dawn speaks
Fond sighs;
Haze loiters

Sun-block hazy
Fuzzy logic;
Sumatra fires

Smoky smelly;
Foreign stench permeates

Hazy shades
Photoshop contrast;
Smoky air
~~~~~~~~~
Deeper meaning
Beyond stuff;
Profiteering woes
~~~~~~~~~
Nero's antics
Witty wise;
Hazy surprise
~~~~~~~~~
Crash and burn
No...
