All People

Bird lady poops,
the street gray under
her ass

all people—
saxophone and car
lock horns—
the street crosses you
back—
did that cabbie wave

course I’ve got a ticket,
looka—
see here—
I’m an old man—
my bench
now, got a
right
to sit
don’t I

over him:
never saw the flag
on that wall
before

outside—with air holes
to pass the wind
