Drexler McStyles: candelabra

June 07, 2005

caves inside the shotgun shell
neighbors in the saltwater taffy tank
a seaman's bag
in the mothballs entrails
a much easier
porkchop to fix

rusted tunes
overlap the litter
from gaping mouths
just like bandits
crossing a drawbridge

on a freeway pointed north
I'm not dressed for the weathervane
I'm not ready for the address

I stepped into your path
with the granduer of a thief
I strolled the darkened hallways
over missing floorboards
with my tongue tied back

I struck the citadel
at the arch of midnight
while engaging in pigtails and candelabras
on satin stones

what else
would you ask of me
