Bright Lint Pump

A bright lint pump
makes the air
"to sparkle."
Yearn to wobble
long of hope
short of cash
a little sprinkle
of "just can't"
and "fucking trapped"
so when people
have hedges
the hedges
get clipped
and that's a job
for someone
the papers
have stories
each page
a little something
to remember
you buy
stuff when
you're being attacked
and then
throw what you bought
over the blood.
