Many of these poems will be of the city of Schenectady from early 1900 to the present.

IN FULL VIEW

In Full View


With a wide smile you
knocked on my window -
stood still – standing on
my
porch.

You were - disturbed.

I turned to my left,
You step right -
In full view.

It was noon, a midday
sun above your head
as a bit of silver shined
you lifted your arm –

pointed at your head -
it was your right hand,
your finger on the trigger -

I startled you?
I suppose -
I never stopped smiling -
as beads of sweat poured
down your face -
your hand - began to shake

I closed the drapes.
