Cretan Maineiac - Homo Urbanus

2014-11-07 29 Dailymotion

for cia

Most days staying in is
best, no
need for the clamor & crowd, outside

my cloudy window. Everything's within
walking distance,
bus stop on every

corner (it seems) , familiar
cabbies
everywhere, & nice to have

Ethnic food
nearby,
just in case. Anybody

wants me, i'll be here,
my side
of a locked door,

or at the after-hours club.

*Dedicated to the memory of Thomas Lawrence O'Rourke (1961-1987) , who coined the term Homo Urbanus for a person naturally inclined to city life.*
