Chizzitku

      after Basho


An old puddle, shallow;

a frog flops off its spot. Yay.

Splopt.

           Innit.





Chizzit : an inhabitant of Leicester, as in 'how much izzit? Reputed to be a coinage  of the shopkeepers of Skegness.  This is one of a number of versions of the famous Basho haiku I've done on my decidedly unvenomous views of my adopted hometown.
