Musings of a desperate man 2 Years, 7 Months ago  
The high squeak of brakes,
Dogs barking in the distance,
Brown van, gold letters.
Heart pounding, breathing deeply
I run to the door,
Fling it open, step out side.
Man in uniform
Crosses the road, through the gate...
...of my neighbors yard...
Maybe tomorrow will bring,
Precious chrome to me.

Step back in side,
Head hanging low,
A few drinks and fall to sleep,
Dreaming of that other precious metal, chrome...
Stumble from bed,
Out the door to work,
Another day to wait,
And...
Brown box on the step, quietly delivered,
Sat alone in the dark all night,
Relieved to be in a good neighborhood...
Weeeee.....

The haiku style exagerated was my intent, I did some last minute editing and screwed it up, thanks for pointing out my folly. I have returned the line to it's original.
