The Poet Laureate of Jones Street

Invisible armies of arms, hands, and legs
in rubber, plastic, and steel
flying home

crowds of iPhones greeting them.

Le contrecoup

Des armées invisibles de bras, de mains, de jambes
en caoutchouc, en plastique, en acier
reviennent…
A l’aéroport, des centaines de portables les saluent.
