24.

I collapsed 

      A birds shadow

On a too sunny day

          in November 

Dusty 

   Dusty 

  dead days 

The where with all

        Of 3rd and Market

Asphalt patches

   Old buildings

Standing outside the liquor store

    Wondering where

all that noise is coming from

We tried to go up the elevator

   But wouldn't let us in

Flashed lights 

    And siren
