Spastic Saturday

Everything in the city looks wobbly
and aggressive today. The way the wind bullies
the bare trees is upsetting the kids in the park.
The squirrels look hesitant on patches of brown grass.
Skittish citizens don plaid and suspenders
as they stroll down 19th Century Court Street.
An Aeron chair is a good thing to sit on
and hyperventilate. The polyester webbing
leaves imprints on your rump. The sky is blue and dotted
with posh puffs. Liszt helps. Coffee, not so much.
