Time and Tide
automobile
Street lamps
billboard lights freezing
The heavy rain late night
sweeps away
an old man
he can't straighten his bent back
he takes a hard breath
white breath to the air
scatter
by his beside
covered their heads with summer clothes
A couple laughing out loud
It passes
cigarette smoke staying in the place
left behind.
