The Motel I Used To Know
Tis' where corn sized craters
in tattered gums give way
to putrid breath twixt yellow teeth
that falls upon crows feet
on the faces
of sick children
that lay on mattresses
devoid of their stolen sheets
That rotten oxygen of
satanic breath
released
neath' street lights flickering
Exhaust ports pour out
of hosts of slithering feet
that wobble
along the cracked concrete
and
adjacent twisted roads
straddled by critter filled weeds
Characters
characterized by woes
mumbling about their latest
drug quality being so low
oh, how they groan
where I used to roam
in my youth's stupor
