MIDNIGHT LANES




lighters changed hands
  with the theft as a game

kebab dregs spilled
  on the taxi rank concrete

cigarette smoke hung 
  in the bus stop rain

king skins folded
  into a marlboro soft pack

flat bottle nectar
  helped bogart the pain

& delirium shone
  on us / in jeans / back then

a sticky eighth tucked 
  in a rothschild pocket

electric moons lighting 
  our midnight lanes
