    an open fire hydrant

Ghetto dreams, ponder
Broke hydrant, cement
Only leaking tears

Premium Member At The Bark
 when the dogs went to the park
 an urge to pee was sparked
 So they lined up at a tree
 There was no fire hydrant you see
 And each took a turn at the 'bark'

Distraught Eyes
Tears spring out of these distraught eyes
like a broken fire hydrant

I'm so deeply wounded inside
that I can hear an internal siren 

It is a warning of my overflowing pain 
there is no rescue mission
in place just the tears that 
help it fade....

Premium Member Fire and Water
the fire hydrant comes handy
first and fore most it saves lives
but to walk a dog in the city
it's a place of choice
better than the lamp post
and a tree we leave alone

as on a leash I am directed
to do my business in a jiffy
and always a piece of paper
as it degrade and never a plastic bag
to reach the next garbage can
she is so crazy but I love her...

Summer's In Trenton
Summer's In Trenton


Driving through Trenton,

kids laugh and giggle,

as they play in the fountain

of water shooting high

into the air from the

fire hydrant.



Prostitutes

smile and wave at

us as we do a drive-by

through their 

designated stations.



Dancer's perform

to the rapper's beat

as we drive by

the row houses.



It's all alive

in Trenton

this summer....

Premium Member Hot Summer Day
Sun poures its hot rain. It wades drinking away the race body heat, beneath their feet as they walk the baking street. Neighborhood kids play upon the streets splashing in the muddy water. No one silent, their mingling voices, squeal with joy and laughter in the gushing waves of a fire hydrant drenching their limbs, a treat to its coolness. 8/23/2017

Shannon's Recourse
tick. . . tick. .  talk the time today
busy a great gather of 
basketed flowers
that might move us towards
great outlawed-metered parked cars 
ticketing themselves
and twist. . . twist your fire-hydrant wrist
while the streets look the other way
simple lack-luster 
awaits your perceptive 50’s point of view
but it’s all the daughters that decide
off which part of  concrete to part with
and wake up 
in which car to ride in...

Premium Member Hot Like a Firecracker
Hot like a Firecracker, Red Dances her Truth
Red is a savage, 
Takes no prisoners
For she wants for nothing

Red is complete 
Onto herself
A pirate-faerie-gypsy-queen

Red is hot like a firecracker
Red dances her truth
Stopping at stop signs
Only to say "hi" to her cousins

Red is a fire hydrant
Waiting impatiently
Tapping her foot, setting her own fires

Red is not to be scoffed.
Red is sassy, sexy, sensual
Red is pizza, red is spaghetti. Stay out of her way!...
