NOT IN SERVICE:

Piece of fruit,
Fruit of Peace,
Honey drip,
Cage on wheels,
Of bags,
Of familiar disposable things,

Is anybody waiting?
Hiding from bone-bitter cold,
Fingers wrapped around something hot,
Distracted by curvy jeans,
Slink across a food-chain dance floor,
I’ll have mine with raisins,

Everybody talks about you,
Fake leopard,
Looking for place to rest,
Americano,
Cappuccino,
Take my waste away,
Why did you loan it to me in the first place?
