Milling around
With a dark breath
Taken in secret
Sleeping in your car
Food and sleep and days
Hot hot sun teetering your brain
Through glass slowly chewing through
Your time and youth and hope
Looking around for a job or home
Or even a crime or some fight
Something to stick into and lose
Your life in
Steeping and stewing breaking into
New unexplored
Unexpected untamable cascades of
Thoughts and cruel dreams all
Crawling out your eyes and tapping fingers
Tap tap tapping flashlights of policemen waking you up
At the convenient hour of one am
Shining hot white beams into both your badly cracked eyes
Accusing you of drugs and the sick crime of having no where to go
Bare feet in the street stumbling around on lines and
More time
Driving and driving and staying awake
All the tight knit fellows out at midnight
Happenings at gas stations and Mexican restaurants
Old diners and empty parking lots
Flat tires and no cash
Low gas and cigarette ash
Past filtered fast
Lips and teeth pull a drag
Crass task
