From a trip this past winter, not sure why I did not post it before.

Impressions on Boston and San Francisco
By Mark Miner

Chipped enamel lays bare the cold cast metal below
ragged edge on a banister
chiseled by carelessness
It is Boston in February
and the world is chilled
and snow is coming.

Spooning on the stoop of a rundown house
street man and street woman
Adam and Eve in the junkyard of Eden
waiting for the cool of the day to talk with God
the Pacific salts the air to perfection
as I fast-walk past this primeval pair
enjoying a fine evening in San Francisco.
