12-23-12 I Used To Run This Neighborhood

smoking cigars
on Madison Avenue
smoking big cigars
on Madison Avenue
watching people
in sharp suits
rushing by
on their way
to work
in the middle
of the morning
before the slaughter

running late
on the crowded subway
hustling down the street
stopping for two minutes
at the corner coffee cart
for my usual hot cup
black with two sugars
and a quick conversation
about last night's Yankee game
or tomorrow's weather report
