recollections across sound
play
as sweet blues
dancing on thin soled shoes
sing along
“A” train nyc refrain
morning rain
window stain
concrete streets
brick walled defeats
marching for your beliefs
young girl dressed
so tight and fine
her longing eyes
still alive
a light across his mind
a wandering man’s shadow night
cobblestone street lamp lit
soft bright
blood and whispers
carry dreams forgotten
open hands cold
bleeding their warmth
110th street vibrations
upstate highway
winter full moon
a left hand glove
missing
almost loved her within
a forever lost
midnight empty subway platform
trace paper images
refractions
carved faces across
low tide oceans recede
where
moonlight retreats
before
early morning sunlight stain
