Speaking of LCDs

Driver side opened

and the man in white stepped out

His left leg lifted and body curled

like the 70s

or a graceful beat


To a black man bored

and looking kind of worn

who sank an apple core for two points

and spun around a circle

gentlemanly, to hold the door

for a large woman who didn’t thank

and he didn’t blink

entering with graceful beating


Summer folk

streets like open air markets or LCD bizarres

rolling down windows

for the sake of Friday spirits

anticipating some energy

and giving themselves up to a chance parking spot


And encounters

with a long lost friend, perhaps

sometimes pretty women

or just the bottles, guaranteed


By night, by god

this music is god damn good

pop stomping

sanded symbols

word snake chords


It crosses my heart to see someone made it
