His voice thunders from across the road
all vowels no consonants
an injured barrage of pain-filled confusion
sure-fire fury and a pinch of glee
Wears an L.A. Dodger's cap over his spongy hair
frayed cut-offs, white socks, sneakers, no shirt
skinny weathered sunburnt shoulders
visible ribs with a potbelly
a wiry free-ranging beard rising
like capitalism all over his enraged face ...
