Wide itself couldn’t have missed the wanton gaze amidst their lashes
Air drew no ticket to wait in line for the next stop
Brown saw brown to clasp themselves for this time
Nothing was planned for this collision
Song birds wore coats to float on dry air That skimmed the
lips of a silent tune
Retiring crickets kicked two more legs just to make the dead
space alive
But why would nature peek at the 11th hour?
Could no second wait?
Why didn’t fleeting feet trip on the cord that joined these
2
Where could the police have gone for this moment?
Sweet agony was in the air but only nature could care
Chattering teeth would ask for smoke breaks
But drew bluff as they’d face the wind every now and then
Stupid twisting and turning would make restless legs
restless
When all knew what not to do but did it
Useless words
Serious faces
Observation ceremonies and pedestrian recruits
All led to the sudden moment that even new brides hadn’t a
clue
Fresh breath... now nothing is said
Fresh breath... now all is thought
Fresh breath... now its happening again...NY BABY! That’s NY
for you.
