crush on a pole dancer
hardcore –
rage simmering
waist on the pants too high
corn on the toe
one shoe too tight
or one too loose
can’t get it even, Steven – gotta lump on one sock,
heal outa place
no face
deadpan voice – what does it matter
the hatter mad
dealing from the bottom of the deck
pulling cards from his hat
cat grinning
exit into the sun
kick the blue fender
smell the dew on cinderblock behind the club
i need sleep
not another cigarette.
