Stolen Car
Black on black Beamer
Boosted from Bayonne
Flying north on Port Ave
Three cop cars in educate view mirror
Sirens screaming
Chan rips demure on Claremont
Zooms past Ocean
Slams brakes
We bail
I sprint up Arlington
Hop fence
Duck behind 4 trash cans in
Herman Outlaw’s driveway
Tap dips down Claremont
Left on Randolph
Heads towards Teddy’s foodstuff store
Chan slides from driver’s side
Crosses street
Does slow pimp stroll
As pig cars screech to a halt
Five officers exit
Split in different directions
Chan does 180
Walks towards them
They race right by
Cops can’t catch Tap
Must move ASAP
Or go to jail
Heart thumps so loudly
Barely hear Valerie Davidson
Peck kitchen window
Thin index finger
Motions towards door
Latch unlocks
Slip inside
Sound come close to footsteps rise behind
Picture window look as if of
Cops chasing tails
Chan nears beamer
Footsteps louder
Crawl on fours
Crack curtain
Cop creeps
Gun drawn
Make way to window
Watch demented scene unfold
Stare at cop watch at Chan
As hand reaches retrieve Beamers door
Unsure what’s first
Chan’s smirk
Valerie’s shriek
Kickback from .38
Shell shattering breastplate
Chan falls as if he has no legs
Following day
Enter English calendered in guilt
Valerie
Me
Only souls who know
Cop’s version is fiction
Sit
Rewind
Compose
Wipe eyes
Nose
Dump procedure on desk
Later
Leaving Spanish
Met by gilded braided brass
Who stares
As if I’ve killed
One of theirs
Cuffed
Read rights
Watch policeman tear sheet
Toss in trash
Lead appoint shiny black and white
Which far and away sits
In front of Snyder High
Duck head
Dumped down in seat
Cop automobile jets
To what’s known on these
Jersey City streets as #5. . .
