POETRY / City Trip / Coleman Bomar

Photo by Andrea Cau on Unsplash

Between back seats of
daddy’s drove down Jalopy
the three siblings writhe 

look:

Alabaster shoes
walk over alley box legs
in porcelain smile 

Upon bandana boys
offered no grace other than
low riding blood bonds

Past saxophone street
born sounds that souls make when they
can’t cry blue downtown 

Downtown
near ash end motel
where leopard coat fishnet dreams
draw within gray men

look:

Concrete is screaming jazz
