White dress and blue tux
for sale in the weed-choked yard
veil not included.
Bar in the back of
a Volkswagon microbus,
chairs on the sidewalk.
Grainy game show plays,
red tissue hearts dangle from
cottage cheese ceiling.
Porcelain dragons
and elves adorned Kimberlee’s
living room shelves
An ivy strangled
picket fence guards the tear drop
travel trailer’s door.
They stand in rubber
boots and smoke cigars, hope to
staunch their bleeding souls.
