Tuesday, December 16, 2008: On the Street…LaFayette St., NYC

In December, shadows drag behind us
like deflated black balloons tied to our ankles.

Silhouettes lag and linger, sag against curb
And metal grate. As I trudge up LaFayette

To your new apartment building, I will the snow
To fall, to fall, to fall.
