City Muse #2:\u00a0 Boston<\/p>\n
Frannie Z<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
From campus,<\/p>\n
Autumn cascaded over roads<\/p>\n
like another sky.<\/p>\n
The \u201creal\u201d sky breathed<\/p>\n
over skyline, where sea almost<\/p>\n
poked in, but only obtruded<\/p>\n
in bays.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I walked and walked,<\/p>\n
never tired.<\/p>\n
I became my own trolley.<\/p>\n
Spooling rails, slipping, greased,<\/p>\n
over dreams,<\/p>\n
I yelled Whitman\u2019s poems<\/p>\n
from bridges.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cambridge sang: a concert<\/p>\n
every night.<\/p>\n
The streets stayed lit.<\/p>\n
Late voices arrived,<\/p>\n
just slightly drunk.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I grew so lost at times,<\/p>\n
I could have been a car,<\/p>\n
but a happy car.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Even in snow.<\/p>\n
