Bushwick Haiku Jam #2

The first one was fun, why not do it again? A lot of new readers now.
Post your own below!

The “Ass” sells tofu?
Organic milk in dairy!
Kiss my ass, Whole Foods

Thai spot coming soon
Troutman bar coming in June
Where’s the damn wine shop?

Time to sweep again
Full bottle of orange drink
There in my tree pit

Dude with the corn rows
Stop selling crack, you scumbag
…Sell good pot instead

“White people buildings”
Why pay half your income to
Live in toxic waste?

    A hissing steam pipe
    Covers my window in mist
    Oh, Railroad flat blues

    It’s not fair, Bushwick!
    Bed-Stuy gets Duane Reade while
    You sip Thai iced teas.

  4. Jeremy Says:

    Hey P, which word in that second refrain has two syllables — Doo-ayne or wy-yul?

  5. The Changeling Says:

    I know you’re probably trying to say Dwayne Reade–it’s Doo-AYNE. Two syllables. While is one. :)

  6. Way Says:

    Construction again
    in the L subway passage.
    I am always late.

  7. Becky Says:

    Backyard party space
    Two doors down, last Friday night
    Invite me next time!

    I live in Park Slope
    I’m not a yuppy, I swear
    Bushwick don’t like me
