So well written, the images are so well done......love the homeless men holding lottery tickets in their grease-stained fingers........the teenage girls missing their pants and modesty.....and especially the "ghosts" struggling from their "tunnels of bondage" out into the open again. So well done, I loved this poem!Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-933453995772969267.post-90695265467261329442010-10-21T15:43:30.581-07:002010-10-21T15:43:30.581-07:00I really enjoyed reading about your early memories...I really enjoyed reading about your early memories of Motor City.<br />Then your poem with all that makes Detroit the city that it is.<br />Thank for introducing me to Detroit.<br />Also, thank you for your very supportive comments about Poets United.<br />I have enjoyed finding your words via Poets United.<br />Best wishes, Eileen :)Eileen T O'Neill .....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03325632298717325699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-933453995772969267.post-75851918282215411392010-10-21T15:14:21.884-07:002010-10-21T15:14:21.884-07:00I love how you have captured the spirit of the cit...I love how you have captured the spirit of the city.
