there is a man waiting a man waiting in short arms small round, round round cheeks gaunt cheeks in fat eyes with a hard nose a smart mouth a quick unspeaking mouth a tense hurtles fist of lips and teeth not moving doesn't say a word and he is waiting in his short arms fat eyes and quiet mouth at the quiet mouth of every little dark half empty half full glass of night and day at the end of the night when you pull your lids tight and he is waiting with his sharp hands his ludicrous expected hands of your waiting your whole life for them when your walking down down down in the little quiet dark of a half empty street he's waiting at the end his lips pulled back over the tight loosest grin of fleshless fat teeth tickling teeth at the back of your neck at the back of your neck tingling faster and faster at the same exact pace of your whole life waiting.
