Five Bucket Drummer

Been writing this week. Revising a few new poems. Here is one.... probably still editing to do on it...

Five Bucket Drummer

Five bucket drummer
in the Times Square Station
steady as a subway
steady as all steel and stone
playing like a one-man
marching band
strong arms pounding
a human generator
powering the city
like all lives depend
on not stopping
the mechanical parade.

I write and perform poetry. I have been published on many websites and print publications at various times throughout my life. I live in NYC where I also create as an actor. Acting makes me forget that I'm a poet for long stretches of time. But I mean to work on that here: I'll be posting old poems, new poems, and everything in between. Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!
