Thrift Store II


Subtle trips and falls my eyelids rattling like a tea kettle flirting with the fire

Steaming up my dreams like a hot shower leaving notes on the mirror

Rolling off the tongue like timeless lies while the truth is hidden

in a box under the bed.

Ice skating on the thin pages the paper money in the can at the coat check

Tatoos bloom on the tear drops prison cells and goofing off

peasant dresses and cowboy costumes belt loops and leather pants

red tennis shoes and the autumn leaves.
