Waves

The wind reeled up Broadway kicking a plastic bag

as high as the window cleaners at 57th Street, bringing hands

to lapels as hairdos slapped sideways and up.

Sunlight hit the wind,

wind fell through the light,

and everybody all of a sudden fought to hold a disassembling trapeze.

That night the wind remade itself

and shot down Third Avenue, now a black wind, clearheaded,

soaked with dark water repeatedly and repeatedly wrung out.

To walk up the street was to be rinsed,

to lean into the current and hear

its drowned voices, hear the one voice just stating the obvious.
