Into the Streets

by

Marq T. Laube

quick!
before the night falls
leaving us once again
feeling (as night-blind prey)
that itąs too late to move,
too unsafe,
let us run off into the city and
begin to play upon the streets
tease a tourist
grab a doughnut
(I know an all-night place)
eat and laugh, punch drunk
hanging from a cable car with a tired old
conductor
sorry to see us come
sorry to see us go
let us strectch each moment
nursing every sight
providing ironic contrast
to the urgent boredom
of the keepers of the rhythm
who on every side surround us
(at our own wish, is it not true?)
so much to do!
so much to see
in every corner of every alley
endless possibilities
of you and me
and
our city.
