- what if streets that have the same name
- link to one another in different towns?
- there would be a correspondence between the grands,
- broadways, mains, rues, vias, 5ths, and 22nds,
- a gentle joining over the earth’s sweet curve.
- names,
- given by settlers or pilgrims
- who wanted either to bring their homeland with them
- or drop it off on their way through,
- would join like lines through dots.
- C Street in Japan
- would be a long block from where I live and,
- coming home from work,
- I’d stop in Paraguay for a cup of coffee to go,
- stroll with migrations of zebras and flamingos across the Serengeti Plain
- before entering the door
- and turning on t.v. to catch the local news.
