Somewhere in the middle of New York a white-and-blue, Pacific island: ... sitting on itself, prim and low as if waiting for someone important, but not wanting to seem so. sitting on itself, as if waiting for someone, many boats go by (no, not that one...) (not that one, either...) sitting on itself, small and proper proper and small... **** is wet) sitting on itself... I wonder How long has he been sitting there like that, won't his feet be cold? **** be wet? The lonely island... he wishes someone would come and sit beside him sit close but not too close, as if friends. in the past few lives but, not in this one (yet) he wishes someone would come and sit beside him quietly for a moment then turn to him and say, with sparkling Pacific angel eyes turn to him and say, "The world needs you, Steve." And Steve would continue staring off into the distant, blue horizon where there's not much, save for a distant, blue horizon ... but pigeons are not gulls, gulls are not pigeons. and the Hudson River is 315 miles long. "My name isn't Steve."
