Back and Belly Drift
A sixty-eleventh time,
there was a toll booth
who lived in the space
between lightning and cold.
She passed the day
tapping out 7/32 time,
scat singing 12 tone poems
passed down from pteradactyls.
A drunken caboose
heard the siren calls, crashed
through her toll gates, professing
true love, cruising
the backside of timeless.
