GM might be necessary

Gives me hives just thinking about it


We knew the old man
he didn't have the chops
out on the beach
hanging around the
topless lifeguard
whenever her boyfriend
had to work
seafood breath, not like he
ate it, more like he was it
never got a good look
at his feet in his tacky
flip-flop shoes
coat of broken snaps
cop said he must live
somewhere around here
always moving
he looked homeless
he looked more than homeless
he looked planetless
something about the way he
vibrated when he walked
made you wonder
if he ever talked his way
into some girl's pants
what her kid would look like anyway.
