Not till I’ve completed going AAAAaaaaAAAAaaaa (breath) aaaaAAAAaaaaaaa and listening to the syllable echo again at me from each nearby building face. Got change for a wash-and-dry, just not another pair of pants to put on until they’re executed. They’re eyeballing me because I’m definitively black, and since the holes in my clothes aren’t the fashionable variety. I’m really singing to the cityscape beyond.
