Urban Alleys - Poet's Dozen Contest

Urban Alleys – poet’s dozen contest windblown city streets becalmed trash waiting idly beneath tour buses sweet breeze that will release the steam of gutter’s flowing stagnant stream rats - red eyes in furtive glances oil slicks glowing rainbow coats squinting sunrise peeking in the alley tarmac trash awaiting take-offs rippling rush night stalkers counting up their tally shape changing shadows on a soothing hush fresh cleansing gust of air a city’s blush 10/31/2015 submitted to – A Poets Dozen – Poetry Contest sponsor – Silent One
