alleyway

October 1st 2007 05:49
stench of smoke clings to the skin
hangs on the hair
like a bad habit that cannot be quit
or a scar that will not fade

wallet barren all
but for a dollar
like a coffin of the missing
or a page torn out of the book

blood is rhythmic
in the temples
like an echo
or a caged animal starved

breath is rancid
even and shallow
like a dormant volcano
or an ocean of decayed bodies

space is wide
cold and vacant
like a barrier
or line of defense

Built between them,
The slumbering drunk
And the feral cat, prowling about the trash
