Mid-Afternoon
On Ponce de Leon there is a man
A blind man who wears spandex shorts
in the middle of winter.
He stands there at the corner
While you wait for the light
to turn.
Your friend - who is driving -
cannot make the air conditioning work
And Moreland is already backed up
the heat makes it look like
a melting painting
And you're staring at this blind man.
Because he can't see any of this.
or you.

Thanks for linking your poem to readwritepoem!

The are you describe in your poem is full of characters and oddities. And the weather in Atlanta is odd too, isn't it?

Good luck in Korea. Hope to read more of your poems.
