Places of intersection,
Times of passing and forgetting.
People and faces meeting,
Details left between the markers and roadsigns.
Memories lost like a pocket watch
In a roadside cafe.
Stumbling onto the freeway,
Looking for an exit.
Remains of a life once full,
Lay rotting and scattered, soaking up the sun.
Bone, hair, blood, mashed into the pavement.
The beautiful colors of life,
Slung against this black canvas.
A drunken car wreck of a kiss.
Passion fading away with the traffic.
The speakers twitch and fade,
As the battery gives way.
Acid burning thru cables,
Severing ties the years wore thin.
The only person who found neutrality
Was the hooker.
Silently standing on Jefferson and Baltimore.
Watching me bleed in the glass,
Shattered on the road.
Watching the traffic disappear into the twilight.

Cool stuff, Dane.
But the hooker was a big surprise.
Incredible phrases.
There's good stuff in here...

Hey Dean !!! ( Dane, you did it to me again ... I am amazed with the imagery of the words and the way you tie them all together. I don't know that I have read anything better from you. If I have ... I can not recall )

Start to finish fabulous, Dane. If you didn't already have me by "A drunken car wreck of a kiss" (and you did), I would have been on board at that point.
Great write! It really deserves more attention.
Seriously glad I came looking,

Impressive use of imagery with vivid wordplay. This is fantastic! I re-read it several times so I could soak it all up again. Great stuff.
