Moment on Michigan
Sweat-glistening brow,
Fat consciousness
Beneath the scaffolding
On Michigan Avenue
In the shadow
Of the Chicago
Skyline, mid-day
On Michigan Avenue
A Dumpster Yuppie*
And the object of every man
At last night’s bar’s desire
On Michigan Avenue
There was pink and
There was pond green and
There was rust red
There, on Michigan Avenue.
Everything’s in perpetual motion
But one thing’s Still forever
On Michigan Avenue
