i dream in nine minute increments (Free verse) by ay deee
night time
a fellow on a bicycle
an old one speed with the swept handlebars
rides across tracks as
these beat up mustangs full of no good
troublemakers speeding
mow him down, tires to rail
the cars stop
an undercover materializes
fires rapidly
all kinds of guns waving in the air
so close to my face
one man out of bullets
burns my arm with the barrel
the gang war
is now a friendly joke
a staged happening
congratulations, we did good
but i am not amused
i push him to the gravel
i punch the shit out of him
explaining how my arm hurts
i look right into his blue eyes
it is light again
