Impressions

by Slavena Salve Nissan

Intersections
Intersections as far as the eye can see
Buildings bricks spires
Gothic Revival Art Deco
Cracks in the sidewalk
Sunshine coats everything
Penetrates it all
Illuminates me
Car exhaust slips between my lips
Chokes me
Bum bum
Countless languages pound
Against my eardrums
Smack crash oops
Someone
Bumps into me
Chanel No 5 Calvin Klein pee
Red light, red light
The rush across
Ladies on Louboutin stilts
Mad men with gleaming hair
Colors everywhere
Bright black metallic sheen
A dazzling dream.
