Why I Live in the City

 

It’s raining in the city –
a development in point of view.
Points of view
never seem to come from you.

Have you ever had one?

The city is a crowd
and getting wet.
As usual you’ll have to let

it be. Where in anything

is what you might call “me”?
You get
the royal we –

except for why it’s limited
to royalty.
The city is a crowd, and wet.
Perhaps that’s “me.”
