First Warm Day

Bare legs, wet pits,

New joggers, marathon runners,

Hasidic men in white button-ups, no black coat.

Brow _droplets,

Flushed cheeks, moist palms,

Rancid, unwiped ass.

Crisp sparkling Saratoga,

Jacket tight around waist,

Birds loudly chirping,

Girls gleefully giggling,

Biker invasion at Prospect Park.

Iced coffee, popsicles,

Three-dollar double scoops,

Coconut Mamitas.

Sleeveless, sunglasses,

Shorts, jorts, skirts

Sports bras only.

Chest covered in hair,

Crocs without socks,

Belly buttons, muffin tops,

Dad hats, sweaters on fenceposts.

Steamy bus, tense train,

Nervous cops,

Sweatshop.
