street roots 15 íáfiGMI ÜXiXâiS? Aug. 1,2014 Occupied by V ic to r Rivera Her smile lit the park Like a hobo hits his wine As when a junkie hits his vein I was freed from space and time I flew through oceans of stars Although a stone throw away Turning, swirling, bending light In search of words to say Back through the gate of reality Now spun in vacant rhyme I strive to occupy something Other than wanting to swim in her mind But I want to know what she knows I’d like to touch her dream If I could somehow open the window And let her feel my breeze But my words don’t bring me confidence Many say confidence is key Introduction now postponed In the meantime I’ll just be me Her smile lights the park While the hobos drink their wine And though I feel I missed the vein I’m free in space and time PUZZLES Crossword 1 2 ■ 3 in the fine arts 15.
