OK Market
The OK Market waits for customers.
Once upon a time the market was a neighborhood center.
A place where one could be replenished, nourished.
Now, a garland of sad pennants festoons its signboard.
In front, colorful tables and chairs invite loiterers.
The posters over the door and the boarded-up windows depict happier times.
A Ghost Market, giving succor to only to its ghosts.
Tucson, 2019
