Squatting on New York’s Cobble Stones
Squatting on New York’s Cobble Stones belongs to the following groups:
New York CityProtesting bums cudgeled by New York’s finest
on a November morning,
urine spilling onto our faces
seeping through the cobble joints underneath us.
we are no longer incipient we
are nomads.
sedated down by educated sycophants, always ready to stevedore.
I plop onto my mind’s mattress
and sprint to Philippines
and stride through archipelagic ambits to find this home,
so I plant a desert before me and
scrutinize the sunset’s dragging skirt.
so I may see things with sober lids
not smothered in kohl,
not dazzled by phantasmal coffers
and not contracted like a wind-rocked canvas.
