Street Musician — Portrait by kenne

A cowboy with a ukulele—
hell, I’ve seen stranger things.

He’s strumming “Blue Moon”
like it’s the last beer in town.

The mustache curls like smoke—
every note a small mercy
for a world gone rough.

Kids stare,
a dog yawns,
the street sways a little
in the rhythm of don’t care.
