Poetry Offerings From Tom Coffin


 

The weather was sticky hot on the mall 
 anticipation for that evening's fireworks 
had brought the masses 
 we hovered around the washington monument 
like ants 
On stage - Live - were the Beach Boys 
their tunes wafted into the air with the 
moist heat and sweat of humanity creating 
a celebration of magnificent proportions 
a performance of the ages 
creating memories 
creating stories 
          creating art 

 
 

Slowdays We Are Expecting Mails, Always
