City Streets
I glide along
Black river
In that hour
Before the morning dawn
To meander
The maze
And gaze
Upon
Stumbling walks
Silent
Long grass stalks
A vision
Two universe
That merge
And swell
Yet
Continue on
Disrupted
As this
Is how it is
Here
In this city
Between
Desert
And sea
I find
Myself
Out
On the East Arm
Enjoying
Kaleidoscope
Reflections
Of city
And industry lights
On a
Blue Gray sea
Tis here
That dwell
Dragon Lady
Come Hell
And high sea
Strikes fear
Into sailor
And wharfies
That happen to be
Cut you
In two
With a glance
As Talons sink in
Wounded chest
Of masculine
But stupidity
Is his
I look down
At the outgoing tide
And realize
That arrow
Had fallen
Fell away
Like a
Hand let go
Set
Free
