Foot forward and back.
So will that be a fact.

Trip up and put into a cell.

are dressed in finest lace 
while hiding in the shadows

boats afloat dot foggy harbor scene

He's sure to go far
 
Neck and neck 
On the...

Trousers and tights shirts
Tights and baggy blouses
Buff boots and converse
Heelys without wheels I do
Is what I wear

a Zapata moustache and a pony.

I sit here with fond cites,
Loiter and linger writes.

As allurement and stance trapped me.
An orange-red gripping gleamer
Transformed me to a car dreamer.
