November of 2007 was full of dust and dirt. Construction work was happening nearby, and it seemed to be endless. It affected my allergies – very negatively – and made me sick. Naturally, I complained about it online (in the form of haiku).

Sinuses on fire
Thanks to construction workers
Making dust mountain

The noise continues
From the loud machine used by
Construction workers
November 12, 2007
Now have a headache
To go with the wheezing. Thanks,
Construction workers!

Seems to be no end
To construction work that is
In front of my house

If I were healthy
I’d go out and scream at them
They’re lucky I can’t
November 12, 2007
Focus energy
Wishing that machine would break
So the noise will stop
November 12, 2007
Little do they know
I made a video of
Construction workers
November 12, 2007
Shouldn’t be this loud
From inside my house with doors
And all windows shut
November 12, 2007
They just fixed this road
About the same time last year
Now, they’re back again

Construction workers
Should have to supply me with
Antihistamines!
