The Story of My Time
by
Michael H. Nguyen
The story of my time
starts at the center where
my city’s heart has no
specific place but
we used to have a booming
business industry
somewhere
an hour and half away
from LA
certainly is an alien place
haunted consistently
consistently lacking rain
the temperamental climate
shifts 72 today
103 the next
this is the story of my time
wherein
june
our residents seek escape
there will be no rain
so the silence
it speaks so openly in the street
where some seek faith
mt rubidoux’s cross speaks of faith
not always a christian faith
but faith in my city
is often faith
all the same
this is the story of my time
where here
june
residents
seek
(escape)
