Poem: "Staten Island Ferry"

View of Governor's Island from the Staten Island Ferry
She clustered her brown self sailing
in a corner amidst friends,
winds and Liberty smiling like a skewed
Mona Lisa
but he, only staring, clutching pewter-like bars,
foam fetching and returning
and he waiting to touch soil anew.
