I have never actually heard
what you call out to me
when I pass you in the morning
on my way to school.

You see,
the windows
are closed,
as my father worries
that you're dangerous.

But,
for my part,
I do not think so.

You are smiling.
Waving.
Giving me a thumbs-up.
                                    How kind.

I wonder
what you are saying
to the passing people
like me.
What words of encouragement
and approval
do you offer?
And does anyone listen?

Sir, I truly think
that you are the wisest of us all.
If only we would hear you
through the noise
of our misconceptions.

Another ode, this one to an old man who stands on the street near my house and yells at passing cars.

I love you, crazy old man.
