Coyote, The City, and Some Moon (Free verse) by Shardik
Down from the million dollar hills
Across the boulevard of broken dreams
An insane break dancer does his moves
Under a street light for no one
I thought, odd, hitting loose smoke
On a flat roof with telescope
The moon had tangles of cloud
And I was startled by the freedom
To be so crazy, so moved, to dance...
Whether I was there, or not, did not matter
And that was what startled me the most
Then out of the corner of my eye
Shot a coyote, then another
All of us within yards
And just like that; we all went back
To forgetting eachother.
