A Day in the Life

[tigrflye]

I'd take the elevator up the Chrysler Building,
perch the edge, then glide
an autumn wind past light bathed clouds after a morning thunderstorm.

I like this but I had to go back and read it a few times. Perhaps it feels wordy? Or I wish there was something "glide ON an autumn wind" or "within an autum wind" or " atop an autumn wind". I just got caught up on that sentence.

A superhero, rescuing some wayward metropolis.
A comic book messiah, manifest upon reality.
They'd launch parades.

i'm a girl that loves superheros ..and comic book boys. So I loved those fantasy lines.

Instead, I pace a platform for the next train,
inhale the pumpkin scented air,
like a mouthful of crispy leaves , like chewing crispy leaves/. Tasting a mouthful of crispy leaves.
and look with the setting sun.

Reflecting on the mundane that is our daily life.. wishing we could be more.
