TheBanyanTree: running haiku

[Jena Norton]

Fantastic writing and running! I love the "mulberry wine" reference--it's
poetic and true to life at the same time!

cracked asphalt stewing
batches of mulberry wine,
side-swiping drunk flies,

i run, i run, ai
yi yi yi, i run run run
on these hot mulled wine sidewalks

spicy with brow salt
and full body sweat slick and
purple spattered legs

dreaming of breezes,
icy margaritas, and
salty salty glasses
