no good denying  it felt good to be high

to walk the summer streets

with a hot young'un

and remember who I am


and even as the moment passed

like all the other moments it recalled

there are no assorted memories

but one permanent condition


of a warm afternoon

walking through the circus crowds

with each seeking his own living piece

of this consciousness


7th Avenue South one weekend

when everything happened all at once...
