Stripes (Free verse) by JMakStak
Burn out, don't calm down,
this town will be sated.
Her teeth crunch beneath
every leaf-crusted grate,
and her lips are the curb.
Cracked cement stretched and sore.
She's tasted you once,
now her throat chokes for more.
A roach skits along where
a guardrail is bent.
Her nose is his eyes and
shes's picked up your scent.
She'll block you with buildings,
she'll lap at your tires.
She'll wrap you within
wound-up telephone wires.
So burn out, don't calm down,
leave stripes down her chin.
Get out before somebody
pulls you back in.
