No More In The Downtown Arts District
Los Angeles flavors of urban interest:
A crowing rooster, as he picks among the slope
of freeway plantings.
(Noted while stopped in traffic on the 10 west,
near La Brea)
A guy exiting the bus in fluorescent Cal Trans
orange vest and shiny satin viking helmet
replete with ten-inch curved horns.
(At Pico and Westwood Boulevards)
A singing woman on a bicycle with oversized
baskets carrying bags, rags, and a small forest
of upended mops and brooms.
(On Cabrillo near the San Pedro boat basin)
So silly to mourn what is not coming back.

Eccentric is a fragile flower.
Oh, for a palette with a full range of color.

Lovely urban haiku-plus. Almost makes me wish for your onramp.
