Alliteration - Visual Poem III

Beijing, Bicycles,and Brooms-
If Walt Disney were behind his desk,
they would be dancing a
ditty-do-wop-don't stop til you drop.


I shot this photo in a pedestrian walkway beside my apartment building.
Location: Dongsishitiao, Beijing on April Fools' Day 2013
Mickey Mouse is missing unless he's whirling and twirling through your imagination.

shallow breathing

hazy breathing 

though a PM 2.5 glaze of yellow

spreading the sky and lungs and tender noses

of Beijing masked pedestrians

making their way home. 

National Poetry Month 2013

April Sneezy, runny nose. 
May please Please Me, sunny rose. 

Wipe Away Fever, season change. 
Robustness deliver, to my June! 

- I'm rhyming for National Poetry Month.
