A Piece of Work by mindgallery
i may have had a few too many but i think
this piece makes me who i am
i mean was
witty (who cares)
careful (nice)
tender
and thought
(full)
–
A snare drum sizzles in the sunlight a
humid jazz standard drenches
the air in Washington
Square
And sometimes mountains jut
out towards the
sky
so high you’d swear
they were
flying
