an abandoned tenement
on avenue z
second floor darkness
erasing memory of sun
a woollen blanket
withholding their heat
will they ever wake up
club kids
two club kids
jack & Jill
underside of their dreams
containing bar codes
dancin’ w/ jack & Jill
12 bourbons
14 bronsons
three left feet
jack & Jill as prophets
love affairs
vacuum cleaners
when used—
disassemble
after hours
under late night neon
he rapes
her reflection
he walks home
clutching glass shards
empty
&
bleeding once again
