sound of the St. Thomas bridge (1 Viewer)

I am looking for the name of the poem where he describes the sound of being under the St. Thomas bridge in San Pedro. I believe he says something about midgets and elephants...

It's called "Janaury," and it's in You Get So Alone At Times That It Just Makes Sense.

It isn't specifically about the Vincent Thomas bridge though, or being under any bridge. This is the part you remember:

here you see this
sky
this
bridge

hear this
sound

the agony of the
elephant

the nightmare of the
midget​

aaahhh! cool! Thanks so much. I even had the name of the bridge wrong in my memory.
