Poem - Tears of a Cafe Window

just before it snows
on lake street
a garbage truck
runs over the tears
of a cafe window

no -- the tears
of condensation
on the cafe window
drilled through
the garbage truck
like diamond bullets
reducing the vehicle
to a flaming ruin

no

no

the truck is gone
& drops of water
keep sliding
silently
down
