CAR RIDE FROM SUBURBIA
Ashok Niyogi
Triangles have angles
As does the building downtown
In little Italy is it?
And I thought they didn’t paint it right
Must have cost them a fortune
To get it exactly wrong.
We must walk these roads just once
To get it exactly right
Like the needle.
I think of shadows all the while
As I did in Manhattan
Amongst all that concrete
And steel and glass
Amongst all that class
Where does the sun grow?
Maybe in deserted cells in Alcatraz,
Maybe in the Utah snow
Icicles on trees
Show me these
Or T-shirts written ‘San Francisco’.
