Diamonds and Glass

Natives and amphetamine smiles
A delightful topsy turvy table top tango
Whispers of desert sun run down
The length of your back
Into pools of
Oblivion

Trailblazing riders
Come from the East
Chain gangs motorcycle Leather
Hidden pounds of Mexican go-go
Crystaline Cartel
Switchblades and
Friday Night Specials
Watchers
Watch
Pushers
Push and Push with Violent
Powerful Perro Eyes
The scent of Canine danger
The acrid scent of death
Looms thick in the air
Carnage heaps
Roadside Blues
Loyalty as commodity
Warnings choke and gag
Turning cobalt sky
Wicked bulbous eyes PoP
Left as a Warning
At the next intersection
Just a mile ahead
Message sent
The line has been drawn
In blood and Coke
Hundred dollar bills
The hanged man points
Turn back Turn away
The Freeway
Ends

Here
