Replying to a comment on:
summer heat blues (Free verse) by peaceseeker
drove to the heart of my city,
took a 10 Exchange St. toke
hid my bleach blonde hair
under my black hood
slipped past the doorman
because you were inside
got a recommendation
for the cheapest, best beer
Shipyard, 4:20, "it's strong"
he said, and $2.50!
played tickle with my buddy's
hermaphrodite pickle
refused offers to go "upstairs"
and watch ya'll electronically
fight each other,
excused myself to the front
of your stage,
Jerry garcia wanna-be
spilling my beer, shaking it
off my hand, bouncing my knees
it was all downhill from there
made a friend, large dark woman
beautiful, wild, carefree
she said, "Wanna make-out?"
I only had the courage to kiss
no tongue, "it's okay you said no"
high on the down low, on stage
as directed by the band manager
unusual, miraculous, fabulous
with my new-found wild twin
dancing like an Arabian princess
lights and eyes all over me
screaming, "WE LOVE YOU!" (motherfuckers)
convinced to kick off my birkies
I was hopping and spinning
with the best of 'em
and when it was all over
what did you do?
you failed to match my passion
forty-two and still toking weed
in the back alley during your break
the 4.20 hype short-lived
