A WOMAN

About 50
with a kerchief
and her left-fist full
of handkerchief she’s pushing
into her weeping eyes and shattered face
as her right arm’s stretched upward in a Heil
Trump$hitler.
She’s standing on
a sidewalk in Chicago,
in Seattle, New York City, looking at shoppers,
at kids yipping along after school,
one of whom with a camera shoots her a nice shot.
You can see her on americantragedy@yahoo.com
