Floating in a cemetery of black asphalt.
Kitchen aprons emerge from red brick.
Beaming sparks of shredded light
spewing
from amber bulbs.
Wavering homeless flags.
Seductive white garters.
The squeal of copulating engines
fertile in the night.
A dance of metabolic life.
Ant hills crawling
with sweet street sweepers.
I sit
tip the glass.
The siren screams
red mutant generations.
Seashells gasp
on lifeless window ledges.
I weep
electric power tears.
The tender yearning
backdrop of life.
Neon glow of ominous screams
imploding.
The constrictive movement
of dealers
of fascists
of whores
of the dying young.
The lifeless sperm
of tranquil nods
collapsing veins.
Like highways.
Potholes and
gravel
digesting
the murky glow of toxins.
