smoke was pulled like ribbons
from the windows of the car.
I followed the flash of silver from your teeth
above the tarmac the lights were icy-green......
Buried in patterns in your chest.
a quiet shimmering:
little dipper, tiara-shine, song bird shivery, thin thin dime

chorus: smoke like ribbons

songs were pulled like ribbons
from the window of the car... lost
along the shoulders of the highway.
the cake walk
dancers unwind from their spin
singing "lawty lawty loved him."
stark don't give a flat fuck

chorus
