the first one in
breathless and buckled up
a yip cinched up from the borrowed testicles of a recent dust up
step up the loaner, fall the borrower
all pinned together in awkward articulation
under a sodium arc moon
small gray hairs in the trailer, like so much unraveled nerves
meshing with the fireproof modern fibers
in the wig of a recent savior
or just stuck in the soap of a runaway girlfriend-
the latest in a series
to be punched in effigy
and pawned all in
