Behind the Glass as Youth Walks Out
by
Bob MacKenzie


The street of ancient eyes reaches grasping futures walking
                        in disguise upon uncertain pavements
Unwilling asphalt floats on prairie wild with brome and buffalo
                        as ancient sunshine rises shimmering
Shapes contort in sunny seas as memories of aeons past go
                        sailing disguised toward diminished ports
They say this quiet street becoming something someone said
                        they saw once becoming now, avoid.
