ALYSSA BLUE

Everyone but us is men at tables.
Man in the carrel where the KFC demolisher  used to sit.
Possessed man from the bus, laughing like knife cuts.
Man sleeping, other man sleeping.
Allergic micro Santa Clause sharing the outlet.

We are girls, 16 years between us.

You ever break up with somebody?

You ever have a hotel party?

Wild prettiness when she laughs,

rabbit teeth, water eyes.

Give me that notebook.

Not Sky or Robin’s Egg,

Alyssa blue.
Two for one college ruled.

What’s your least favorite thing?

Walking.

It’s too dark too windy too everything

outside.
