Clever review
Of last night’s event
The ruckus
And noise
Polluting cramped apartment spaces
Little girl accepted amongst
Those in black get ups
Servings food and filling waters
Waiting for approval and learning to exist
Plainly
And without consequence
Entrusting in her
Solid foundations
Of days gone by
Nights in bars
Dancing beside animosity
And fellows watching her hips
Swing back and forth
Back and forth
Possessed by rhythms of the DJ
No age
No consequence
Under red lights in confined spaces
Through side doors and back doors
Smoking cigarettes on porches
Pondering fallen hopes and washed up ambition
This they gave her
A package neatly tied up
With ribbons and bows
The card left blank
No signature
No consequence.
