It's an Exciting Time
by Jeffrey ParrenWhile reading
Bukowski
on the bus
into the city
I glance over
and the man
to my right,
across the aisle,
is engulfed
in printouts
kept neatly
in a colorful folder
of flowers,
apparently November
is Orchid (Month)
or so it seems.
It's an exciting time
purple, green, & white
cascading over
the dreary cold
helping him dream
of warmer weather
and this trip's to see
an exotic Orchid hybrid?
It's an exciting time...
he with his flowers
me with (my) poetry
to each his own. 10/24/2008 Posted on 10/24/2008
