Line

People standing In Line
In the pouring rain
To get an autograph
Of an Old Man
Who took some photos
In the Seventies.

This City

Jesus Christ, this City.
Dirty streets rumble with menace
Meth-addled lovers argue
Over a dirty mattress and remnants
Of lives destroyed
Dear God, this City
Its rotten heart and worn out soul
The ball of mental illness
Staring, hungry from across the street corner
Eyes angry and worn
Goddamn this City.
