winged
clowns
caper sideways
blvd wise
stylish birds
beaking
nightly

to hoot
to trill
to caw
to chirp
to shriek
to roll necks
to tie necks
to tangle necks

heaps of tacky
plastics gather
round boards
bending inwards
over steins
of spatter
and disguise

we have
asked you
kindly
to
withdraw those
spokes of
rage you dart
towards
folks on buses
who
somehow have never
once even
approached you
let alone ever
taken any job
or
stolen anything ever
said to have belonged
to you

they
like you
only want to
get home
to dinner

they unlike
you
are stopping no
one from
that

you
need
to stop and
alone in some room
face that yawning
cave
and forgive
your
tired
beaten
self
and after a year or
two of
that get back
on those
buses
to offer
seats
to stand
aside
to
sit down
next to us
