Downtown Portland
Maine
Sitting outside in the sun.
It’s almost 70 degrees today!
I smoked a joint
Talked on the phone.
I’ve written three poems now.
It’s Spring!!
Ya.
Car after car going by;
GMC, Jeep, Honda, BMW, more GMC’s and Rams.
This will worsen as it turns to summertime, tourist season.
Maine has the best summers.
Nothing will beat Main Summers.
Car after car I watch.
I people watch too.
Runners,
Couples,
Singles
The pro lifers leaving their weekly blabbering.
Kids and parents, bikers.
And even elderly.
Everyone is out today.
This is a diverse city, sort of. Not really but kind off.
I’ll definitely get some much needed vitamin D sitting outside in the sun this long,
City watching, so much is happening today, I don't want to miss it.
I also see many of my neighbors too.
We look out for one another.
They'll always look after you too, once they get to know you.
Because that's what we’re supposed to do in the city.
Gain a family and look after one another
That’s what we do in in my city
