Midtown (For 30/30) Mundane skies hold hands with concrete rooftops A tattered puma sneaker lays on the sidewalk --- An abducted partner nowhere to be found The air, a collision of safari melon clouds, murmurs and soul music A woman sits in a wheelchair outside the dialysis clinic Stickers adorn the light pole Lovers share a cigarette outside the church Sirens serenade the street The streets Where a poem and a term paper share a birthplace Where vomit, blood, and graffiti come together in sublime mosaics Where the voiceless scream into dark abyss of night Where scholars and junkies have playdates Where we riot in rooms Where hieroglyphs scale skin Where gentrification gets a middle finger in the middle of the map
