trash truck comes
clattering around
gathering up debris
and waste, bits and pieces
of the day to day,
haul it away to a landfill
down south somewhere
no one knows when I ask
and I ask, but later in
the day.
and Tammy wakes up
beautiful and fresh,
young enough to be
young enough
and says, hey wanna fuck?
I say, ya
and we do
and fall asleep
until the recycling truck
rumbles down
the broken pavement alley
she crawls on top of me
again, and we fall asleep
i dream of the next trash truck
to rumble down
the broken pavement alley
but it never does
