Poems

Security

By Adam Day

Whose questions
are these? There is
an event, submerged.

The street
is a street in ___. A set

of actions is in play
here. Specific
actions. There is a

principle player
in danger. Precise

inexactitudes. But
in a way that one
enjoys. And pathos.

Surprising pathos.
There is a real population

around a car.
An act of violence
that does not

matter. But is
essential. A player
at work making nothing

happen. The story
interrogates him.
