Saturday Night after 9/11...
.
Union Square Park -
not too far from Ground Zero
thousands of candles
mourners walk between flowers
cell phone photo journalists
the armory's walls -
little boy tries to help
by pointing at picture
asks me if I've seen her
then his mom leads him away
soon after 9/11 -
mocking peace sign's slogans
in the empty bar
MAD man screams LIBERAL
comes at me with FIST raised
misunderstanding
sarcasm enraged him
- ready for a fight
patron intervenes in time
for me to clear the air

an angry man
wants millions KILLED
