That Part After
Strung out on concert confetti,

waiting on the primrose lock

for beck-and-call command,

we catch glances in the sodium light,

we clash gazes in form 782 whir

lit up in sangria shade for the season.

Some toothy minder's grin hit me,

some pained twinge of childrens' watercolour

crossed to meet the same in time,

winced and jangled in ragman's echo;

key and clock the very same,

confetti a chemical's trick.
