[bodytext] => In the evening the breeze is lukewarm like a cup of clouded over milk tea left sitting for too long in a hustle bustle bristly little coffeeshop that ignores your fidgety, solitary presence, an impotent brew not even strong enough to lift your limp mane of hair. Shuffle your feet chuck your sweaty change in a bag full of entagled stray ends, frayed and fused together just like that table of ribald old men, dazedly united in a post afternoon drunken stupor. Oh they've got camaraderie Oh they've got humour that won't be smothered by the funeral parlour but rather, the comfortable fool who forgets to pay for the next round Get up and walk on by them now they don't have a train to catch as the street lamps langurously yawn open displaying their neon tinted mouths unlike the warm glow emitted from childhood memories it's more like orange hued tic tac dispensers, tossed from the windows of countless flouroscent lighted apartments stacked upon each other like 14 inch television sets from a department store many shades of lamp light ago. The phone is ringing but no one is answering the pesky telemarketers with grating accents televised dramas and scripted smiles are much better Go ahead and pick your grotty nose in front of your smiling screen no one's watching. A smile that quantifies your charm, all gawks and giggles, is worth about as much as a rotten tooth that's been painfully pried from your mouth anyway.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
