MAGNIFICAT
This guy's a wizard, as he angles
with his palsy. I can watch him
shake outside the Aldi's in Linden?
Or maybe that's Roselle. Don't
even know, or anyway, can't tell.
I think he's collecting carts, yes,
but he's also grabbing them from
people so he can have the quarter
that's redeemed with returning carts.
No one seems to mind. Poverty has
its funny moments, most certainly.
-
Sometimes I think that life is
nothing but 'performance' - it's
the how-you-do of what you do.
Like my father used to tell me...
'If you're gonna' be a garbageman,
be the best one you can be.'
-
I think he meant 'perform.'
