strutting the streets
of Myrtle Beach
I want you both back by 10
set them loose mesmerized
by electric glitter
glowing in the night air.
Enchanted and dizzy
she loses her friend in the sea
of tourists sweaty and porous
in the thick salty atmosphere
looming over her.

The sky grows heavy
bloated with bile and blood.
Criers brandishing their bells and Macguffins.
Our fates pronounced in the day's butchered swine.
Effervescence expelled into skeletal frames.
Niche messiahs.
The complexities of our realm
bastardized into tropes

Rainbows at her fingertips
pulsing with music magic believable myths.
Seduction of one-eyed dreams
a galaxy speaking through a leaf
left hanging in the dilapidated rake
where I found her legal pad letter--
riffs of smoke and jazz still floating
over the bed of glass roses.
Time destiny lingers like fireflies
in a field

lose out on king kong
lose out on talons testicles and colons
lose out on the throngs
lose out on whores and chores and doors and floors
lose out on chords for songs

The river flows
Sediments sinking slowly
No more sentimental currents to fight

I just ran into Joey.
You know he’s not the same.
His face is filled with loneliness
And cracked by bitter pain.
He tells me ‘bout his broken heart.
He tells me how it aches.
He’s just another drowning man left
stranded in your wake.
I had a drink with Billy
