...know the ghetto and how it smells and falls apart. They'll tell you that looking you in the eye, and describe how much it hurts. Sure they know. All they have to do is turn on the television and watch Mrs. Middle Class vacuum her horribly dirt-ridden shag carpet to know. They watch and wonder why they live the way they...
...twin, my sprinting shadow on yellow shag, wand of summer over my head, it seems that we could run forever while the strong waves crash. But the sun takes its belly under.
