Crossroads
We work on top of the remains of the industrial complex.
14th street and Astoria boulevard trucks of petroleum
And tars deliver nausea through library windows
While across the street men do not lumber,
They build your kitchen tables, desks and bureaus,
Carefully sawing the shape you will call home
And place your things on.
By the bodega downstairs, glass is carved for windows,
Storefronts, indoor gardens; and one can only hope
You see yourself in their not so tinted reflections,
The future. I will call this forward movement
The condominium, the co-op, the high priced rental
By Astoria park so that the gentrified too can sample
The delectable taste of the East River,
The twittering of birds that once the mall is built
And the poor have left will be trendsetter territory,
The new Williamsburg where the arts will not flourish
Because the rent will become a surreal rendering
Soon, there will be no more homes to care for
The children coming home from school to projects
Will have moved, vanished or become hallucinations
Yet, traffic’s death trap on 21st will still be there,
Magnified by the loss of small factory jobs present, long ago,
The forced migration of a population to a netherworld
At the edge of the darkest bodies of water only to be replaced
by upper class city dwellers rummaging through the
Neighborhoods stark and crumbling past for gemstones
to open and attract this crowd to its magnetic temptations .
