snack time is a
smorgasbord of lick-your-lips
at the oh-so-delicious cafe
and "what did you say?"
someone shouts above the din
and "over here lovely!"
fat jovial man with a twisted moustache
beautiful sandaled ladies jostle each other
for crumbs of spare change
the light up their faces
and "I love this cake!"
sticky fingered girls giggle together
and "best coffee in years!"
they are rolling with laughter
the owner rocks on his heals
well clad in crocodile leather
a few cracks by the zipper
and "isn't she lovely?"
two middle-aged men laugh gayly
and "oh it's just the best stuff!"
white tipped noses on late teens
everyone's got money
and it doesn't mean a thing
everyone's a honey
and it doesn't mean a thing
TRANSLUCENCY
why are they all so happy
at the oh-so-delicious cafe?
BUT I LOVE IT!
OH IT'S FADING!
my dream was a pastel pink perfection!
GIVE IT TO ME AGAIN
NO!!!!!
I beat my head on the pillow
all these sweet-treats-people!
where is my dream?
MORE PINK!!
MORE PASTEL!!
POP!
