... Normal
was always right around the corner
-- a 50's drugstore --
milkshakes for a quarter -- black
coffee in thick white mugs --
white boys in duck tails
pouring Crown Cola
over black girls in white dresses --
newsreels just couldn't do it justice -- even
colorized years later --
the shock of red -- how
you never saw their faces
in the same light again -- how
every year the price went up -- how
the trouble was never quite
good enough
to stop
the endless rewinds
the multiplication of names
on marble walls
