A hometown poem inspired by happenstance.

1. Outside the Marshall Case Building

2. O UTSIDE T HE M ARSHALL C ASE B UILDING Ladies chat on a brick sidewalk In the warm sunlight On a bright blustery day

3. A poet cruises with the top down In an old sports car he loves Like the words he paints on paper

4. Bare bits of eternal discourses Captured as they tumble past On a bright blustery day

5. Into the warm sunlight where Ladies chat on a brick sidewalk Outside The Marshall Case Building
