Campus Eye

Unlit Cigarette

Have you ever sat next to a beautiful woman while waiting for the late bus out of town?

Cycle

Her name is Lenore and she is the making
Of a leather-skinned mechanic's many hours
In a sticky Manila basement. Allen wrench in
Hand, he trues wheels and straights brakes as
My teenaged father watches in awe.
