Summary:
open mic style poem written in a coffeehouse. some posters have rather piercing eyes.

cuban cigar smoke traces

your head

translucent tendrils, male medusa

your red-eyed glare could

halt

the hand of death and proffers

that hand

should your stare

slink

away and cling to another

the jukebox parodies

“under the milkyway”, it’s

voice admixed, strangers

burble their vowels and consonants irregularly

pings and pops

the only true warmth

we keep to ourselves

knowing votives are

not eternal.
