Anger

Anger Slits the dark throat Of day Light bleeds Into morning windows Begging bones through the dirty glass street traffic Seeking even the garbage can lids Essent dislocation Hiding shadows beneath a shining disinfectant A woman’s body washes off The draining water of filth college money Pristine illuminated office 100 floors up the skyline heaven christian – Dior rich *** Still sits on a toilet Manhattan above the plumbing fixtures The precise silence sleepless clocks cold calculation ,relentless In it’s gathering mouth The wheat priced out from the walled street Up again **** Tattoo shell game of law – clean shirt tie covered Rateing interests mobility at the speed of foreclosure Rattling bars till Bills liqueur store opens And ties me another bag of endings
