"best of" poem of the day 04.21.16

01.03.2011

on the bus ride
home
i watch greek kids
slapping
each other silly

they smell
of garlic
and old clothes

they won’t stop
shouting

as an old man
sneaks
a beer from under
his coat

while outside
they are taking
holiday lights down
from the church

these are the most
beautiful things
that i’ve seen
all day.
