Star Child Memory
Snapshot of a moment
an outdoor poetry reading
in early Spring 1996.
Glimmering stars
and looming moon
through the gloom.
Passing through
in that cavern
of concrete, glass and brick
off Broadway.
I join the poetry reading
already in progress.
There's a hush in the air
as we approach.
Star Child and her friends
standing with me
on the sidewalk.
Glimmering stars above us
Springtime
constellations.
Poets sit in a circle
in the alley
behind Bazaar Earth.
In those early days
so late in the game.
But I couldn't remain
back then
I had to keep on moving.
I told them they couldn't get
high enough
to float with me.
Star Child twinkled and tweaked
skipping by me
in that spangled night.
Stopping at the parking meter
waving goodbye.
