Free 1, Week 9

my skin hotter than blown glass

fresh out the oven

ya temper tempts me to put fist to stomach

assist sounds to plunder

take down her number

then throw out the napkin in the trash

sit back write about it and wonder

if i had picked her to be wife

could i re adjust my morals and

determine her actions rights?

In most circumstances, I wouldn't

so I dance nunez, a street boom

box rocking the block like that

july 9 am Sun; break dancing

youth station cardboard stages

at hand for tourist entertainment

rent, practice and all of the above.

The wall behind them freshly painted

over, white anti graffiti paint flaking

like BIC white out left out for an hour

too long. Sitting staunch across the

street a man with overalls rolled up

to his knee laughs, cobra hidden in a

brown bodega sack and the peach

he stole right under his wife's nose

that peachsupernova red with a pinch

of C minus red. Chunks lodged in

his back molars bite after slurping

bite.
