One 
for each—prism of white 
winter 
sun glinting—
off 
the dirty cascading
windowed facades of old flat-
iron buildings—and several
more 
for each orange- 
cream colored vomit stain 
dotting hard-
spiked snow piles—and the last
two or so for 
the smell—of all the log-jammed
big vehicles backfiring 
at endless 
stoplights—suddenly
lifting! with the changing 
wind—and grace-
fully modulating
to 
the precious 
notes wafting out 
fresh 
from the neighborhood's 
healthy 
competition of donut shops.
