political octet #2

12/11/16

yellow leaves & crushed paper cups in curbside
puddles; under her red umbrella someone

waits on a bus; in a doorway someone leans
on his walker; black wheelchair exits the bus,

another boards: someone in dripping poncho;
rain follows gravity into the river;

cars follow the interstate’s contours, broken lines:
unweeping morning, invisible people
