  You could have a big dipper   

sunday in the park by Maryann Aita






an onion of a man: globular, stumbling

shouts at passers-by


rivaling the roar

of the passing train beneath.


he sings things–not songs–

his voice a chainsaw with words.


he asks

if we are making a porno


and tells us

he is the archangel michael.
