I felt it under my feet, wrestling
into the tread of my shoes, holding
gravity at bay : a tramp waving
a broken rake at a pack of dogs.
The grass was green, sure,
green from rain sweated
by Mexicans making a memory
of diddly shit a day and eating
nada but tortillas and beans. Yeah,
the invisible hand’s a convenient jerkoff
when tail is scarce, but studios
rule this town like the sun does
the desert. Thicker the grass, kid,
harder it is to see the ground.
