America
Poem
January 1, 2007
Airport
Terminal corridor.
Cowboy. Wrangler jeans
round-toe boots.
Black hat, shaved head
beef-pink .
Lordly saunter and disregard
scuffed and dusty people
color of his low heels
clutch bundles
knotted as packs
babies in cloth hammocks
plastic sacks of food
wear their wealth:
nose-rings and bangles,
uncertain, alert, determined
embroidery of inherited coherence.
