W e d n e s d a y s

George street city slum

migratory cars in turn of the a(la)rms

of five o'clock time to go

home and dodge pedestrians

(100 points if you get the guy

            who keeps trying to clean

            the windscreen)

wednesday's tip the week

            t   h   r   o   w

 scales to believing

            there is escape

two more days to two days more

            of respite,

and teenage love affairs at workplace parties,

late twenty-somethings looking for meaning

in sex-on-the-beach

            giggling to bartender for more

phone numbers smudged

 (names forgotten)

            just call me bill

and he'll call me easy

            -er said  than

done with looking for meaning

between sheets

stuck in traffic

            again

mind wanders to

wednesdays

            pay days

week

        end(s).
