Man found
dazed
walking
the streets
in what
appeared to be
fresh
fall weather
following
wind and rain
but
like every breath
we breathe
every bite
we eat
every sip
we take
is polluted
farm raised fish
swimming in
their own shit.
Nevertheless
comparatively speaking
a beautiful day
and the man
though
no beauty
had his wits
somewhere
about him
in one of
many pockets
momentarily
eluding him
no cause
for alarm
the only danger
myriad predators
lusting
after stragglers
dumbstruck by
sensory overload.
I wished him
well
all
I had to give
and turned to
the next page.
