the life of the street
the life of the street. listening to a mandolin guitar accordion on bourbon
street. as sweet gypsy music plays on. wandering jackson square as the mist
slowly rolls over the river enshrouding the french quarter in a soft glowing
mystery. exploring abandoned warehouses. fallen apart. far out in the
bywater. walking along the wharf. to where a ship crashed. leaving fallen.
caven in. destruction. climbing aboard an old navy ship. such a large empty
hull. so large. looking for a way to the gun turrets. late one night. as the
ship drifts away from the dock. swinging by rope to land. before it drifts
back again. waves washing against the shore on the mississippi. life. so
harsh. can sometimes be so beautiful.
