The weekly haiku

Streets awash with filth,
The sewers bubbling over:
A Beijing shower.


And it wasn't even proper rain - more of what we would call back home a mizzle. We probably had only a few millimetres of rain over the course of twelve hours, but in no time the drains were clogged, the sewers overflowing, the streets flooded.
