third avenue

flying down third avenue with abandon
roostertails of rain
arcing up behind him like cellophane wings
empty pantlegs wetly flapping
his face serene exultation
and i am small and hard and
old
in comparison


Karla Manus. I live in lower Queen Anne with my cat, Griffin. Much of my poetry is written while riding or waiting for the bus.
