I like it
down in the weeds
so to speak
watching the world
go by above me
in my man-cave
man-house
and though it could use
a little paint
that’s how it goes
as Leonard Cohen
would say
everybody knows

so give my regards
to Gloucester
and all those
other places
I used to frequent
and are still there
I’m fine travelling
in my mind
without fear
of mentally ill subways
for legs I once flew on
no longer behave
though far from dead
