I moved the car

Sitting in the old Hyundai in a Wednesday spot

Waiting for the street sweeper on a Tuesday

It had been raining and the street was wet  

the sun was shining through giant clouds

at my head where I sat waiting for the dull roar of the coming street sweeping vehicle

Old Chinese ladies sat in shiny SUV's waiting too

One blocked the street and a guy couldn't get by

She didn't care

She had to get her spot
