24 Hours to Kill

Any road will take you there
but only one will bring you back
though by that time you may resemble
eternity
         in a grass skirt
                     behind darkwater
                     eyes              fluttering
                                  outside the beer store

& the only way I can answer that
would be to genuflect
right there            in the parking lot
                                                   like Sal Mineo
beneath the neon haze in black & white
as a palm tree plays a little shuffle music
with beach sand whispering
                                         across the sidewalk
like something you
could have said

but didn't
