New poem: DOWNTOWN L.A. AUGUST 14, 2011

.ate a wonderful chopped vegetable salad




with ten-dollar grilled salmon on top



at a new restaurant



inhaibiting an old building



at the corner of 4th and Main Street



where I went down a long flight of stairs



to use the men's room



and saw pictures of the landmarks



of an earlier Los Angeles



(Bunker Hill, the original Pershing Square)



that were altered or deleted by Progress



and then afterwards



drove to Disney Hall,



got lost



trying to find REDCAT,



and noticed young people



wanting to be famous actors or models



using the upstairs ampitheater for a photo shoot--



and I wondered if the great Frank Gehry



would mind his grand silver creation



doing double duty



as a backdrop for headshots
