I am so happy to present to you, the 12th rengay by the three ‘renegayds’! The enjoyable pace that we’re writing this series is my delight! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

On a city street

(in order of appearance)
by
Lesley Scoble (ls), Melissa Lemay (ml),
and David Bogomolny (db)

ls:     the early morning
         cleaning cart sprays gutters,
         pigeons search for crumbs

ml:    a man walking his dog
         has sunglasses on

db:     darkness falls
             construction workers
          pour asphalt

ls:     office workers streaming home,
         pavements fill with glowing phones,

ml:    crescent moon shines
         playing amongst the stars
         on Hollywood Boulevard

db:   lamé,  lip gloss,  rhinestones
         sPArKLe    in Yucca Corridor
