Brooklyn is all brick eyes
double yellow lines and cement steps
with stoop ladies by aluminum chairs
holding rosaries beside their fig trees
Brooklyn is all brick eyes
with old bakeries spilling semolina
dry anisette bread and your voice
interrupts my eyes as I stand under
Blooming magnolias and dripping rain,
forget all I meant to tell you
