Tag: concrete

keep it moving

head headed straight for the concrete,
with excessive force added,
but not accounted for,
as a mixture of regret and shame and longing
pass over into oblivion,
then silence

gentrified thickets of asphalt 

defining moments of anarchy spent yelling

inappropriate prayers under my breath

as traffic stalls

and me with it
