It's the third of July And the foot traffic is out of control All traffic is out of control Kids letting off fireworks Cops pulling over Drunk drivers I'm kind of mad at the rabble I walk these streets every night Now I have to find a well lit side street To write my poems on It's almost the 4th I can hear fireworks in the distance Someone must offer their assistance People ride by me But none of them can recognize my face I make my mark then I erase Sitting in the park The only light foggy street lamp so dim But I can see her and see him Sitting in the dark On a bridge over the muddy river Eighty degrees and still I shiver I can write you poetry that'll make a strong man lose his mind: |

At times we are all observers rather than participants. Nice write. |
