“I crossed over to Broadway and walked north to
Twenty-fifth Street to the Serbian Orthodox Cathedral
dedicated to Saint Seva, the patron saint of the Serbs,
I stopped, as I had many times before, to visit the
bust of Nikola Tesla, the patron saint of alternating current,
placed outside the church like a lone sentinel.
I stood as a Con Edison truck
parked within eyeshot. No respect, I thought.
from M Train, Patti Smith
