THE BROADWAY

Under a scorching sunny day
down the busy Broadway
four (or five?) young men or (women?)
undertook a streaking.
Like a flash of lightning
making the onlookers spellbound
with unbelieving eyes
they stood rooted like statues
unable to even identify 
those four (or five?) young men (or women?)
Was it a hallucination?
Or flashes of lightning
melting into thin air
just before a heavy downpour
they couldn’t make head or tail of it.
With the onlookers
coming to their senses
each glanced at the other
with big question marks
glimmering in their eyes inquiring
whether they actually went thru
a sleight of the hand feeling, a magical feeling
none could respond with conviction.
Where did (or didn’t?) they come from?
Where were (or weren’t) they heading to
even today it continues an unsolved puzzle….
