 Back In The Day In Stockton




Cracks in the sidewalks
smile in sunshine
at night frown
swallow tramp piss
daily smootch
a thousand soles
stare at filthy rigs
where got-nothing-to-live-for
beat-down Adam and Eves
need repair
time-out and prayer
where when the sun
makes way for the moon
neon Tavern lights flicker
and the night life triggers
maniacs on missions
sick sacks of insanities
on the prowl
about to play painful
game of cat and mouse
where horny got-no-life
lonesome prairie dogs
in heat pickup crackhead
floozies on Market/ Sutter/ Main streets
toothpick funky
dirty chickadees
where chickenshit ol’
chicken hawks pimp
pop-their-cherries-for protection
to sleep to eat
young apricot-ass
runaway scared boys
selling them for a dime
or wine where
winos woozied in worlds
of mindless near
death stupors
panhandle societies
workin’ muppets
crash where they
damn well please
where pitiful ol’
bagladies try to snooze
curled-up on metro bus benches
bundled in ragged
tattered quilts
gotta be somebody’s grandmas
where by Marianis
Arroyos and the Elk Lodge
at the bottom of El Dorado bridge
a block from cop station
a mass of humanity on
verges of beastly antics
congregate in near
religious ceremony
of concentrated craziness
where predators lurk in
dark recesses
compassionless
low-life sons-of-bitches
where hypes nod
in woozy wods
slaves on the shit
where cold blooded
cowardly slimy
degenerates jack roll
don’t-bug-nobody
ol’ drunks
rip their flesh
rob them clean
downtown when
the sun goes down
Stockton is: MEAN.

Reminds me of an older one.
Is this a repost?
I liked it both times.
Peace.
