Poetry

sharing the dark
in the freezing cold
in a stinking car
my brothers and I

while our father sits
inside a warm bar
drinking with his derelict friends
we sit in the parking lot

where the whores gathered
out in the rain
just down the road
from Libby's old cannery

sharing the night
in the freezing rain
in a stinking car
the whores, my brothers and I.
