watching the river flow by

it truly
is entertaining these days,
the news,
the protests out
on the street,
the marches and parades.
all these wild colorful
characters
in the flesh, not on Disney.
sometimes
i'll pack a nice
picnic lunch and a folding
chair, and find a shady
tree to watch
the show go by.
occasionally i'll bring
a blanket
so that if i get drowsy,
and there are no drums,
or megaphones,
or sirens
from the cops, i'll take
a cat nap
and close my eyes.
