CITY THAT DOES NOT SLEEP

In the sky there is nobody asleep. Nobody, nobody.
Nobody is asleep.
The creatures of the moon sniff and prowl about their cabins.
The living iguanas will come and bite the men who do not dream,
and the man who rushes out with his spirit broken will meet on the
street corner
the unbelievable alligator quiet beneath the tender protest of the
stars.*

*Federico Garcia Lorca

FRAGMENTS

REALITY/ BANALITY



DAY IN AND DAY OUT,
NO THOUGHTS
ARE FIZZLED

THE FRAGMENTS

DULL AND TIRED

NOTHING WILL DISTURB
THE BANALITY
MAYBE

 RANDOM NEWS  WILL ARRIVE:
A FAMILIAR FACE
 PASSED AWAY SOMEWHERE

 YOUR BAG FILLED WITH

 UNNECESSARY OBJECTS
LATEST ADDITION;  SOLEMN FACE

A CONCOCTION
INGRIDIENTS WITH
NO SUBSTANCE

A QUESTION COMES TO MIND
 WHEN
AND WHERE

 YOUR FACE
ATTACHED  TO A BAG
OTHER THEN YOURS.

" DRINK UP , PUNK."

I THREW MY EMPTY BEER CAN ACROSS THE ROOM.

"TELL ME SOME MORE ABOUT YOUR MOTHER , JIMMY BOY. WHAT WHAT DID SHE SAID ABOUT THE MAN WHO DRUNK HER PISS IN HE BATHTUB?"

"SHE SAID,  ' THERE IS A SUCKER BORN EVERY MINUTE.'"

"JIM."

"Uh"

"DRINK UP. BE A MAN!" *

"THE DENSE CROWD SAILED IN DARKNESS, IN LOUD CONFUSION, WITH THE SHUFFLE OF  A THOUSAND FEET,  IN THE CHATTER OF  A THOUSAND MOUTHS-

A DISORDERLY,  ENTAGLED MIGRATION PROCEEDING ALONG THE ARTERIES OF THE AUTUMNAL CITY."*

near where dirty Thames does flow

and on each human face I meet

Marks of weaknes, marks of woe'
