Jodi Peary said...: Words and imagery collaborate well. Hope and anticipation are so often deemed states of unhappiness, wanting anything but now. Fishing is an excellant example of wanting the next thing to happen but having a fantastic time regardless. Thank you for your comment on my blog. I usually do write haiku in lower case. I write my blog in caps...perhaps a nod to overbearing, will revisit, but the haiku should be subtle and lower case. Thanks! Jodi

Thank you for stopping by blog and commenting. As for your question as to why there are shoes hanging from street poles or wires - I am not a 100% sure, but I have heard that it is a sign used by gangs to mark their territory.

Take care.; 6:48 pm
