IMPROVISATION#319
UNSURE OF THEMSELVES

Unsure of themselves
    two Beat poets
finally     find a statue
in Central Park
to sleep against
in the dark
railing  with words
until they invite others
here in the Sixties
to a happening
by fevered green plants
emerging for spring
underground
and  suddenly are joined
by hundreds
for a free expression
and listen to a reading
with jazz sounding
in the grass
among the birds.
