An encounter with a street preachin' man.
When The Sun Begins To Rise

The stanzas of this poem are written in iambic heptameter.
The refrains are written in a modified ballad form of iambic
pentameter in the first line and iambic trimester in the second line. So it is a 10/6 metering.
When I was living in San Francisco and attending University,
I used to party most every night in the city and there were
many street preachers practicing their art but this tall and
scraggly man was really quite entertaining and charismatic
to a fault. And it was him that inspired this poem in 1965.
