Something Someone Told Me On A Friday Night

tab on tongue

melt melt mmm-

nature chorus disney prinney ave

all the leaves are burlesque

feathers

peek-a-boo!


they pedal each movement

a mobile of air

clouds and lungs

push push pedal go!

free.

two boys like zooming

breath

leaving the lungs.

Goodbye World.

See yer tomorrow.


Don’t get friendship stronger

they’re a tandum

now.

Wheels spinning beneath

them like a motor

in place of a brain. Zooooom!


Electric. the leaves snigger

sinister.

Somethings happening.

They roar in unison - lions -

skipping manes bared teeth

raaaaaaarrrrr!

We Can Be Anything We Want.

Anything We Want!


And then the car.

As misfit as it would be

in a different century.

They didn’t count on that.


Boy one -

head first

to the grill to the lights to the motor

a screeching

cranium dandelion

bursting out into the air

little scarlet plumes

part of the air now. Joining nature.

Gone.


Boy two -

stops.

Cloud burst. Dead weight.

Staring at his best friends mind.
