Cigarette Strokes

props to the frantically puffing biker, who in her nicotine haze forgets to signal and slides her fixed mechanic sidelong into heavy headed five o’clock.

A single eyed albino man blinks in distance at the spectacle, mistaked for far sighted winking. Baby shaven head burnt in slanted summer sun. Cherry topped like sight unseen.
Silver fox trots past, Globe and Mail tightly tucked in the crux. I think he was bill bisset – the front page letters cut and paste in headlines wayward: “Manytoba Dike Beach Proposed; One Dyke Beached”

Sucker punch the sharp tongued beggar, speaking in imperatives, and hungry eyed at sight of cigarettes, as they’re ground and shriveled in the rocky palm of his assailant.
