\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

ON MARKET STREET<\/strong><\/p>\n

I walked Market Street today<\/p>\n

you know that place<\/p>\n

junk stores and some say junk people<\/p>\n

where I tried on that Greek fisherman’s<\/p>\n

cap authentic at 10.99<\/p>\n

my head was too big my head was too big<\/p>\n

my head is too big became a chorus right there<\/p>\n

on Market Street but no one heard<\/p>\n

except this guy who shot out of that store<\/p>\n

like an unguided missile whose any target<\/p>\n

will do meant me and this junked man<\/p>\n

he crashed into me and when I said sorry<\/p>\n

like mama taught me to do in all special<\/p>\n

circumstances he only said in a commander’s<\/p>\n

voice supreme at ease and in the very next breath<\/p>\n

was shocked into recognition of who was soldier<\/p>\n

and who was commander exactly and that junked<\/p>\n

man commander saluted my head too big<\/p>\n

and shouted with respect in-boned yes sir yes sir<\/p>\n

and I knew that from analyst to commander on<\/p>\n

Market Street is not an easy promotion<\/p>\n

yet I took his gift of rank and its cap just right<\/p>\n

when I heard him shout at ease and saw him<\/p>\n

salute and yes sir yes sir even to that girl<\/p>\n

with one arm that girl not even bumped<\/p>\n

into became a commander too on<\/p>\n

Market Street today<\/p>\n

when girls are commanders who will be nurses<\/p>\n

who will be nurses on Market Street<\/p>\n

when that man that mad man<\/p>\n

has made commanders of us all<\/p>\n

it will be yes it will be madness<\/p>\n

yes madness itself yes because<\/p>\n

on Market Street where I walked<\/p>\n

today is where madness is<\/p>\n

psyche’s only nurse.<\/p>\n
