Spring 2005 - Volume 27, Number 2

En Garde

There's twenty-six cents in my pocket and I'm walking alone
by the dark musty gym on 23rd Street.
Something in the stance of a fencer makes me
stare at her calculated movements, footwork like a dance.
The coarse vest is familiar, the angled elbows are my own,
but my dueling days are over, I'm just standing in the rainy night
hearing sirens rise and fall.
