Walking in - 9/10/12
9/10
Walkn in
I watched the parrots of Telegraph Hill again and tried to figure out where he lived.
Princess Flowers and Roses and Agapanthus and a mailwoman delivering mail in a heavily tagged mail truck
Clear and sunny with a chance of Nirvana
Coit Tower was built during the Great Depression with land donated by Hitchcock Coit
I try to imagine the hill without the tower
I try to imagine getting approval to build it today
I find a garden kitty
As the water fills the sea
I recognize the power lines above the Greenwich steps from the movie
He definitely was on Greenwich Street, not Filbert Street
My calves tremble as I descend slowly
Into the shattered car window streets
The television was invented here in 1927 by the genius of Green Street
Across Broadway and downhill into the cool shadows of financial district towers
People stretching out in suits leaning hard into brick buildings
One of the cameras dies and I could kick myself for not charging the batteries last night
61 F. Another scorcher
A line of politely lined motorcycles and you could walk down a line of them and touch every bike you ever owned
Downtown, the winds die down and the flags won't fly
Its like Obama took the wind out of America's sails
We need an ad for Romney that says 'America - we're open for business'
And shows people turning around signs from closed to open
And dead flags fluttering back to life
I'm at work :)
