October street
more leaves than trash
this month

frantic dash
in the sweeper's wake
park with the flow

peeler man hawks
on 42nd and 6th
how much for the scraps?

two lovers on phones
enjoy the park
in three different worlds

at Google today
the center of the universe
maximizers concatenate

china doll in the window
wants so badly
to lift her skirt

baby in Times Square
lies in his limo
while mommy gawks

is there milk
in the blue bottle?
Calvin Klein underpants

are you Jewish?
stranger asks.
he'll give you a blessing

sun dried worms
on the walk
crunch under my sneakers
