GIRL ON A TRAIN... THE BURIED GIANT... THE GREAT GATSBY ... AND ROBERT FROST?

From Girl on a Train to Robert Frost...I recently wrote a few haiku reviews... a great exercise in writing. Some are reactions to what I read, others are refractions of characters (i.e. the pool cleaner in Gatsby is in my imagination, not the novel's pages). Here goes... 

For The Girl on a Train���  
WOMAN ON A METRO 
On a metro car:See or hear nothing, feel less.Days of driving rain.  
 
For The Buried Giant���   FOREVER TODAY 
No past, no future���misted memories, but allconnect, remember? 
 
For The Great Gatsby���  
THE POOL CLEANER 
I cleaned the swim pool��� after cops fished Gatsby out���more work, no more pay. 
 
For The Collected Poems of Robert Frost���  
A LOST WRITER 
I don���t know these woods���what crossroad to travel now���lead me there, poet. 
Have you ever tried a haiku review?
