It's a Pity,
O, It's a Pity,
it's A Goddamn Pity! !
4 an Ineffable, Brooding
Young Man,
2 have 2
see Woody Allen's 'Sleeper'
All Alone, By Himself,
in the Heart of the
Blue Lotus Shaped City,
YONGE & DUNDAS SQUARE!
it's Impossible 4 him
Not 2 B Jealous,
& Envious,
of all of the Loving Couples,
HAPPY,
Sitting out there
in the Rows, & Rows,
& Rows,
of Fold up Chairs,
Sharing Smokes, & Laughing!
Holding Hands, & Cuddling!
Pouring Liquor into
Half Emptied Pop Bottles,
& Fast Food Cups!
B4 the Movie Starts
singing along 2 The Doors
'Light My Fire'
that's Coming from the 'Hard Rock Cafe'
Watching 3 B-Boys,
Break Dancing on a piece of Cardboard,
4 a Small Crowd, Gathered,
Across the Street in front of the
Eaton Center.
3 Screens show endless news, & Ads!
Seagulls, Pigeons, Police Helicopters!
& Planes Pass in the Sky!
Cars, Limos, MotorCycles, Security Guards,
Street Cars, & People Go By!
& the Elderly Couple, Eagerly sharing a Spliff,
Sitting Beside him sigh,
& Whisper 2 Each other:
' It's a Pity,
O, It's a Pity,
It's a Goddamn Pity! !
4 an Ineffable, Brooding
Young Man,
2 have 2
See Woody Allen's 'Sleeper'
All Alone, By Himself,
In the Heart of the
Blue Lotus Shaped City!
....YONGE, & DUNDAS SQUARE '.
