P(r) – Poem 1 – The Chinese Restaurant Ignored By Time Passing

Present but not really here

a 1960s Chinese restaurant like David Lynch

deliciously drunk on tastes

like dangerous candy

words flowing off my back

like water

the warm buzz of people

safe in private conversations

the scent of childhood

in lemon-lime fizz

packs a dangerous punch

–like schoolyard bullies.

    The punch packed by Lemon-lime fizz in a Chinese restaurant ignored by time…

    Where are the bullies now?
