From Picture to Page: Unused Signs for Sidewalk Gathering

Wanted to leave for work early enough to take some pre-sunrise shots. Failed. Took this photo and wrote this poem instead.


Unused Signs for
Sidewalk Gathering

Please wash hands and feet
before ascending to soapbox.

Open America's endless
backs of trucks.

Last free bully pulpit.
Fight me.

Whose milk?
No milk.

The people divided
come back and it's repeated.

This is what Democracy
breaks like.

This land
is more land.

God is watching
somewhere else. Go nuts.
