back streets -
metal spokes are all that's left
of the umbrella

I like it - very noir, but wonder if the last line could be left out, and link more coolly with 'back streets'?

It was a cold, noir morning. (There's a first line for a novel...)

and a good thought about what could be left out. I've often improved a haiku by taking something out.
