Signs

Splitting hairs with dull knifes
dressed up in bad habits
life relegated to picture screens
unheard screams
darkened diners
beckoning candelabras and moonlit drives

no wax drips sealing secret treasure
grand Mal seizures
nor sacred visions

hands tied together
reckless, restless
begging for a night outside

I burned your picture last night
just to see you move
smoke illuminating
from those flashing signs

OPEN 24 HOURS

hidden behind the unlawful order

NO VACANCY
