I

down

by
Jesse Glass

down

it came

down

from

the

autumn

sky

down

it came

down

& every-

one

rose

& wept

in the

city

(my

city)

& some

were

fly-

ing

& some

were

fall-

ing

& some

were

run-

ning

& some

were

burn-

ing

where

were

you

listen-

ing

watch-

ing

then?

in the

shat-

tered

earth?

in the

broken

air?

in the

oily

fire?

in the

tainted

sea?

where

were

you

listen-

ing

watch-

ing

then

when

every-

one

rose

& lookt

at the

sky

lookt

at the

sky

where

they

stood

in my

city

&

wept

?
