There
are more of them.
Does
that sound like an outtake from “The Birds”?
Maybe
Hitchcock had the discontent in mind
When
he made that movie.
I
see them downtown, people,
People
with no place to go,
Or
maybe they can’t stand themselves
And
wish to get out.
They
look kind of hard,
Not
well dressed, and not happy.
Some
of them are in this Starbucks.
Three
are nursing coffees.
No
women in this bunch.
Just
eight guys crowded around one table.
They’re
not doing anything,
But
their presence makes me nervous.
Probably
not a God-fearing one among them.
What
if they demand attention or cookies?
Is
this how class warfare starts?
There
is work for these men. Right!??
