Corners or The Great Canadian Moose

Corners


they sit at corners ... they solicit pedestrians, “Spare some change?”

How many of us recognise their need? as they sit at corners. . .

but our mayor has organised better activities for our cherished citizenry

The great Canadian Moose: they have noble colours...they stand at corners!!

While others sit at corners... who will be their companions? who will see the sadness in their eyes...
they sit at corners...

Lakeshore and Spadina once offered us squeegee kids.. some still stand at corners...
i couldn’t understand what the outrage was all about... they used to sit at
corners...

Instead Toronto is now adorned with the great Canadian Moose... they stand at corners!!

the municipal bylaw forced them off the corners... they no longer sit or stand at corners. . .
Toronto cultivates the “good”... the great Canadian Moose stands at corners now.

Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates would be proud of our corners
Our polis is cultivating the “aims and pursuits that aim at the good”...

but they sit at corners. . .
The activity of the soul is a noble pursuit...

they still sit at corners somewhere. . .

What is the philosophical view of Toronto’s politicians? What is their view of happiness? The good? Is it equated with the virtue of the soul?with the good?

Oh! oh! by the way... they still stand at corners somewhere. . .

we should sit at corners sometimes...
they, the politicians, should sit at corners... somewhere... sometimes...

what if i might be sitting at a corner somewhere. . .? one day. . .
at a corner. . . somewhere. . .
corners...
corner...
Bloor and Bathurst...


the canadian moose, you, and me... sitting... at corners…
one day… homeless men and women, squeegee kids and me…
-The Great Canadian Moose standing proudly-

at

corners…

you

and

me
