Downtown Buffalo, February 18/2023



The day finally breaks, I wander the streets. In this cold, the bitter wind will split your lips. Darken souls. Freeze their faces. In time. my thoughts will wander as the wind settles down and I can snuggle my consciousness under a hood. 


I am the dreamer, alone in my world,

Lost in limbo

When the wind batters my senses inside

Where concrete and stone 

Make asphalt seem soft

And one missed step could crack your skull

Break your wrist, or ruin your knee

So I know to beware because

It is so bitter here

That death could appear to me as a friend.
