Track: 4. Your Street vs. Wall Street
Notes: Originally written for November 2009’s 5 track Nighttime Stomach.
Whoever you are
on the corner in the black
nursing the vase of ghost roses with bent necks
in your flushed, open palms
-- our eyes met
and you certainly had me fooled
with the gleam of your teeth under streetlight inspection as
that man standing by you in the gutter repeats
I’m sorry
I’m sorry
"I’m sorry again."
