What Is Seen - Harlem Tenement Poem by Warren Falcon

What Is Seen - Harlem Tenement



Old women
lean out windows

swaying between
backyard buildings
old clothes lines

gray string

thin

thin

Purple flower boxes

a woman's hands
folding letters

sweet soap smells

on top steps
wet shoes full of wind
