Friday -989 Fox Street Poem by Val Brooklyn Rogers

Friday -989 Fox Street



7 years old.
The candy store.
Out the door,
Running
Candy store man, Miguel

Some Mary Janes,
Tootsie rolls, lollipops
Lip sticks, bazookas
PUMPKIN seeds.

Tip toes, money's on
The counter. Exchange
A brown bag of
PLEASURE TREASURE


Running, FINALLY
Elevator or steps?
Steps! Pouncing steps
Pounding depth steps.

Made it no time at all.
Ringing the bell 4A.
Brown bag, have
Candy, share.

Brother and sisters
June WANDA Nath.
Turn the channel.
Fix the antenna.
Watch TV YIPPI!
GOOD TIMES
Year 1973
