Wichita

Neil Flory

yeah that’s right it was cans a big fat black garbage
bag overstuffed with aluminum cans all clunking and clanking together
like the loudest most obnoxious machine in the old factory and she
was dragging the whole stupid bulk of it across the cracked
pavement making the most ridiculous clattering scraping racket
you’ve ever heard in your life well needless to say I was awake
in no time flat what with this kind of commotion afoot no no
no she wasn’t young and glamorous she was an old hag with wild hair
a dirty shirt and a scowl that just wouldn’t quit no it wasn’t
Corpus Christi it was Wichita in the springtime and it wasn’t afternoon
but night and a real dark one to boot except that the illumination
of the parking lot was actually far beyond adequate having been
accomplished by way of a number of large streetlamps spaced just far
enough from each other so as to allow their coverage zones
to be separated by only a few thin inches of intervening dark in
each case well anyway by this time I had come to realize that the
store had closed hours ago and even if they hadn’t they didn’t
sell the kind of smokes that I liked so before another nap could
find me I turned the key found a station playing Wagnerian
opera put the top down and took off in what I thought was
a general southeasterly direction
