"Thy look is lovelier than the sea in moonlight"
said the hobo to the crowd
"mine eyes are awash with your splendor"
he screamed into the city
as he
kicked his upturned hat.
"the awesome sun does not rise without your consent"
and the many dirty pennies scattered
in to
the streets
and fell down the grates
in to
the cleaner sewer.
