a man reaches up to touch
circling birds - the ones close by
also the really high ones
his daughter & her friend
pose for photographers
one faces the camera
the other turns from it -
some work
some are tired
we all wear masks
to hide or honor the dead
in rooms where men
leap through lighted fountains
& the shadow of a small lizard
sticks to the ceiling
The Small Lizard Shadow of Mexico Street
