At the Bus Stop

Turning again
and again
towards the empty place
fails to bring it any closer
any faster

  1. Tattooed City by
    Charles Simic

    I, who am only an incomprehensible
    Bit of scribble
    On some warehouse wall
    Or some subway entrance.

    Matchstick figure,
    Heart pierced by arrow,
    Scratch of a meter maid
    On a parked hearse.

    CRAZY CHARLIE in red spraypaint
    Crowding for warmth
    With other unknown divinities
    In an underpass at night.
