The fans spins in the window
unplugged
flooded streets; spilled over Susquehanna and
salty sea water lapping up motor oil and laughing at cars skidding
over low passes
In a town shop window I saw a photo
taken from atop Buddy's Crabs and Ribs
just after Hurricane Isabelle.
Dogs swimming after floating dinner plates and
boats docked at parking meters.
I want to dress in my finest lifevest and stroll these streets
after rainfall with you.
