Always something interesting to see on the city streets.....
Restaurants, stores ,busy hotels, corner groceries, street food--hot and sizzling.
.....and on this chilly spring evening--a sweet little kitty is alert on the sidewalk, intently gazing at all who wander by. She is working tonight, beside her beloved person and her "big brother" the dog.
The typewriter keys go "clickety-clack, clickety-clack" as her beloved person creates poetry, street poetry, on whatever topic strikes your fancy.
The kitty leaps up onto the shoulders of her beloved person. "I must help keep her warm", kitty thinks. "and whisper ideas into her ear--ideas for poems. Poems about chasing mice and tasting salty sardines. Poems about dishes of sweet milk and sleeping by a warm fire."
I chat with the lady for a bit. She tells me that she was taught how to write street poetry in New Orleans.
So...what "topic" would you choose for your poem to be about?
