| A Crossing by M.L. Crider Mason & Ellis, downtown at The Old Siam Pigeons & Vagrants flock on forgotten pavement their Song for Invisible brass bands Travelers & Locals . . . stride No Song escapes their lips, Phones & briefcases filling time, Silent swarming in mad grips Ghosts perch on lost pavement as blackbirds take note in their straight line, Studying from sky-wire bands There was a time when their job was mine Shuffling are the song-less weighing the soul packed crossing of this jam I saw the dead and the living In old downtown San Fran March 2013 |    |
