patent leather streets

by Gloria Nazzaretta
Poetry
wet pavement graffiti.
words spill into gutters.
fragment, run-on, awkward.
puddles slide words.
forever, now.
patch work crosswords,
keep,
friday night.

patent leather streets.
words intersect tire tread.
wet pavement graffiti

friday night,
open mike, coffee, strollers.
together, integrity.

patent leather streets,
puddles slide words
perpendicular to street lights.
forever, now.

the street whispers rain.
