Military in Bywater - A Poem
Bywater is usually a quiet neighborhood
becomes noisy when the
Marines run thru Bywater at 7:22AM almost daily
shouting war slogans
waking residents
breaking the noise ordinance
and have no parade permit.
“
And the city council does nothing about it.
In this is artists’ neighborhood touting gentility
Artists often work at nite.
To be awakened at 7:22AM interferes with their sleep and their work
No one wants to live in residences where artistic and creative work
cannot flourish.
