Gordon Square

The old church stood
All afternoon I waited
Tables loaded with porcelain 
I'm sorry you saw that
Vomiting, voiding into the bowl
Left for passing dogs 
Bent page copies of free literature 
This isn't a library, sir. Jabroni, jerk
Move along. Buy or move along
Clean up and sanitizing. Bleach
Stainless steel cutters at the meat market 
Oldest thing left besides the church 
The bar features Fruit Loops and cheese
Crackers on their hotdogs for six
Dollars rattling on ends of the street 
Blocked and bookends by bus
