The park was trashed out tonight-
angry men, broken glass
and garbage among shrubs
bursting with blooms and sweet fragrance.
It was beautiful
in an ugly sort of way
like a very fine movie
on a very dark subject-
the wind like a scarf
that would keep no one warm-
the crescent moon
against a deep turquoise sky
blinking at the confusion below.
