keep art alive; art by rich tuzoneach step requires wide eyed attention
visible breath like tendrils of memory
left a bit longer then the last words spoken
spin a finger through as it all but disappears
passerby overheard sentiments
you catch some pieces and fill in the rest
snapshots from someone else's show
we are all just hand-held parts of the act
the grime of trodden pavement
all stage and spotlight to slip around
or take a seat
become the daily audience participation
clap your hands
raise a fist
blink twice and risk missing all that undefined something
worthy of this scissor snipped cutout
might just tuck it in a sweater sleeve
as you make this unwanted escape
only half as much to drag along
but volumes reside beneath the skin
this city will linger well past morning
(written by me)
fists up ~ the blow
