Salt Lines

Carriage jungle shudders 
carry offending souls wayward
touched on to stale eye flickers,
close vacancy, loose cares.  
Unwashed men in sweat salt
caps consider the white
light lies of thumbed palms,
dumbed psalms of 
daily deliverance. 
Un-held sways distract headlight  
plays to that sound: rhinestone brakes

Routine sits considered among his   
friends Numb and Bedrock. 
no words worth utter, no pleasantries. 
they remained, to lacerate. 
Unshaken by crack white slaves 
or ignorant children of infants. 
They stand, statue to like of concern
or played apathy to road line, 
not interest, least curious.

Carriage jungle shudders 
assume rights to passage,
but that gutter fakes folly as 
Routine holds that pass of clean air.   
Blackbirds 
murdered for drama-less plays. 
End-of-line stupor would dupe her,
heavy as strangled minds tore tangled vine.   
let them off at the next  
last stop.
