Falls Flowers

Falls flowers On the road to Bolequeime on the way to a German supermarket that sells proper Teutonic sausages as autumnal flowers blossom, some of the blooms sit on white plastic chairs wearing shorts. Sometimes a car stops, no, not a man in a white van, a big car a businessman on the way from his office stops getting quick blow-jobs. Best this way no need to undress an act that causes people to stare. The human blooms have water bottles the gargle; no one here smells like rosebuds. They used to, in the summer gone throng nightclubs and the beach but only slow walking men fill the bars and beach. Like a beautiful weed, they trek inland, sit by the roadside and wait. The flowers look nice in fading light, but not if you know what love is. the weed of autumn sits by the verge, sells despondency
