Analysis and comments on Halsted Street Car by Carl Sandburg

Comment 1 of 1, added on September 26th, 2004 at 5:39 AM.

I'm not one usually moved by poetry. But I remember not a "car", but a bus
route in the 1950's -60's.
Bib overalls were not uncommon. The fragrance of the few remaining
slaughterhouses. Just a memory. But a different one than most. It was
normal. Thats what people did.

Bert Lile from United States
