A punk rock safety pin

that reads Brautigan,

watches M. Monroe movies

& pets strays cats

drops into a human-shaped chalk outline

but can’t be heard over the lazy,

wide eyed & waiting silence

of the gutted crime scene

wanting to be told

what to do,

what to think,

what to feel,

what to like,

what to wear.



The human-shaped chalk outline

takes a selfie in its new summer dress

from H&M & posts the picture

to its Instagram account.



The picture gets over 200 likes within

the first 2 minutes of being posted.



The safety pin sighs.



It hopes some pigeons

come strutting by

soon

so it’ll have something real

to watch & admire.

A housing impaired man

lies on the grass in Union Square Park

like a stringless, sunburnt violin

trying to play itself.



No one else can hear the song

he’s unable to play but,

listening carefully enough,

warm, jagged shards of it

reflect off the sunlight & pour

into my ears like cheap, wounded beer.



I lie down in the grass

like a slightly buzzed Carnegie Hall

& stare up at the oozing-green

canopy of leaves,



grateful,

consoled



& hoping

this is what it feels like

to die.

Watching your last

flying fuck

fly away

feels like taking

the most profound

& explosively-quiet

shit

ever.
