End of the Relationship: A Pseudo-Haiku

My original plan was to respond to a statement I heard on the radio this morning, but I am changing my plan. In truth, my critique was a bit too hostile and did little to add to the speaker’s point about taking the sightless into account for urban design. Instead of that post, I am casting about for something interesting to blog about this morning without spending hours on this post instead of my dissertation. How about a pseudo-Haiku:

On Listening to Gotye’s “Somebody that I Used to Know”

Winter Pavement
Streaked with snow
and dark bootprints
leading away.

  1. Love the contrasts, you use footprints / bootprints with stirring impact. Leading away is a near-perfect end, well-done sir!

  2. Thank you. I tried to stay true to the 17 syllable requirement, a mention of seasons, and contrasting images.
