his black beret,
speaking spanish,
a cigarette in his lips.
a leather bota of wine
around his neck.
his burlap bag full
of newborn kittens.
he tips his hat and waves,
he smiles
at us children
as he heads down
to the beautiful green sea
to drown them.
all seven of us
sit on the curb and wonder,
are we next.
