Good job. I like haiku that is quick and says a 'truth'! Read Wabi Sabi for Writers last week and learned a lot about haiku but I still think it's just what you 'see' or 'know'. The exact format seems only there to be a guideline. I'd love a link - thanks for asking!
Sandy Thank you for stopping by... I loved the gast station teens take on this 3WW..! And of course I dont mind if you add me onto your blogroll, thank you so much for asking...I couldnt come by yesterday, but I am glad I made it here today. Thanks.
What a great image. Reminds me of when I was a teenager hanging out in the Plaza back home. Thanks for allowing the trip down memory lane. Have a nice weekend.

"gas" station... love it. Windbags unite!
Nice!
TW, you are very welcome.
PJD, I am LMAO...too funny. In Texas we call them gas stations...maybe I should have said "petrol" stations? From one windbag to another. ;)
KH, thank you and thx for visiting.

Perfect, seriously befitting, if you know where I live, that is where the teens are.

A perfect image conveyed in so few words! Nicely done.
Truefaith1963, thank you.
Square1, thank you, I appreciate it.
succint, structured and smart is your Haiku
This took me back to high school, being a teen on the corner where a gas station used to stand. :)

Ha! I jumped in my seat! Great "mock" haiku. Across from my HS would have been "gossip and smoke cigarettes." Of course, that was a hundred years ago.
TC, I think there were those kinds of gas stations around every school...I know we had one. THX for stopping by.
UL,I'm glad you made it by today too. :)
Richard, I can certainly relate but I not ready to say it was a hundred years ago though it sometimes feels that way.
I just filled up and the guys were there doing just that! Great haiku!
Fun peek at life.
Hi Sandy -- your haiku is vivid and tells a real story. It created an instant picture in my mind!
:)

Thank you all very much.

So they have those gas stations and hangouts where you are, too? :)
Very nicely done. I'd say this week's words were among the more difficult to fit into a short haiku.
So true, Bone. It seems to me the last several 3WW prompts have been a challenge for me but I like that...it makes me work harder and that is good.
