Hooked on a Feeling

Matthew T. Birdsall

Every Friday night is sold out
for dollar beers and amateur wrestling

at the historic theater
on the corner
of Roosevelt and MLK, Jr.

The line forms early
to warm up
with chilled flasks

under the slumped over marquee
that was stripped of its title
and flashing lights
10 years ago
after a duel with the super cinema.

Toddlers sneak
away from the huddles
to peek
through the duct taped
asterisks on the windows

at aging musclemen
with vegetable ears
who smack each other
to feel something.
