pins

[constantine]

thought i'd hit the alleys
roll a few numbers
i like the feeling of power
when the ball smashes into the pins
chain reaction
my own bikini atoll
i saw her at the counter
white shorts, creased
pink cashmere sweater
rack em up
the boys were shooting nine ball
crazy pocket action
spins and bank jobs
there's always a shot
i followed her to the parking lot
blacktop asphalt
crushed glass sparkling
like a milky way in hell
i held the door open

thanks dino
took my wind a way from this funk I am in today
enjoyed it immensely
