occupy


there's horseshit on the sidewalk
and a helicopter in the sky

the boys in black
must have attacked
the camp this afternoon

the turf is wan and flattened
the plaza has been steamed

the tents and canopies
the tarps and cardboard
hauled away

the bocce ball court
is safe for bowlers
once again

the skaters waiting in line
at the kristi yamaguchi
holiday ice rink

won't have to contend
with the riff raff across the street

and the shoppers at the ferry building
can rest assured

that there won't be any urban campers
taking spit baths in the sinks
of the public restrooms

christmas has been saved
