I
the always-aslant encounter
of humans and street
making their lives
in the grounds they see
making their lives in the grounds they are given
constant encounter
as variable as the daily
for those who see
elliptical to the happenstance –
the skyline to the treeline
the glide to the cobble
the palm to the point
the both-step-aside to avoid each other’s path
and collide –
Hopper saw it
and Colan saw it and Strange had already
stepped into it
stepped through it stepped out again
moment
but now
his pupils are that much more round
the trashcan tilted the better to see now the street
the face in the orb implied
that everything had changed and that
things
would never be the same again
