falls road – sunrise in a small city

rapacioutrons

in every atom
of metal in rails ships machines wheels
brick stone in streets walls foundations
wood in chairs beds tables coffins
food
polluted air
treated water
with quarks letpons bosons
interacts a greed hate fear particle
emitting waves in uncertain half-life

old streetcar at sunrise — (baltimore trolleys were desegregated in 1871 as result of a suit filed by john fields—seventy-eight years before rosa parks protested segregated buses)

from slater the traitor

picking, carding, drawing, roving, spinning,
dressing, warping
at the speed of the falls and allegheny steam.
weaving webs across oceans

cotton mill at sunrise — (the washington cotton manufacturing company incorporated in 1809, operating on smith avenue)

james run jones falls

volcanos in the ocean
build paradises
that fall to pieces
and re-emerge
to be washed away
and re-emerge

jones falls at sunrise — (the lower falls of jones falls carve through rock formed over 490 million years ago, during one of several mountain building events from colliding plates–volcanic island arcs were also formed)
