43

Gloria went to a CrimeWatch meeting yesterday evening; one of the tidbits she garnered there came from a local CDC representative, who had proudly trumpeted the fact that there are 43 CDCs (community development corporations) in Cleveland. She told me this this morning. I thought about it, and suddenly, out came this haiku. 5/7/5, right?

a community

and forty-three CDCs

cannot co-exist
