Colorful clothing
Hangs from makeshift clotheslines
Crisscrossing a vacant lot of
Bright green grass and cracked cement

Below a poster that demands
Death to Invaders
Vacant eyes
Swoon at a tangle of yellow-furred puppies
In a wire cage

A pair of vacant shoes
In-line with three shod men
Who Squat on a low stoop
Passing a plastic jug
