The musician (Free verse) by richa The sun has been harnessed
here in the subway
another yellow from fire
sharp only as smoke
the tunes of acoustic guitar
and flute take shifts
like those
of blue and great tits
and coins are tossed
to fill
the brim of a flat hat.
Up the ladder:
turn the cameras off
Down the ladder:
power

nice write
