Tobacco
Shop Girl
Smiley-face tobacco Shop-girl
Sweeping brush twilight sleep
Gail loves her greased lightning Hot Rod
Pint to wet her whistle
Cindering everybody’s night
Happy paraphernal speech
Lady who is sleeping on the park’s bench
Dusky potentate shekels and cold coffee
Cracking her fingers
Hilarious papers applause
White-eyes moose a slow approach
Pumpkin-ship lack-a-day after Halloween
Slight altercation language, Gym floor at
lunch
Quaint Gipsy-like man-o-war walk home
