#carpark
It seems not all cars
Have a place to park
At night, when it’s dark
And everyone’s home is far
From the workplace;
Not everyone has a space
To rest
After being put to the test
Wherever we spent the day.
I’m still looking for my way
To my lot,
Where I can put my thoughts
Aside
And take
A break
Driving on this ride.

I breathed deep
as my fingers curled on the wheel
and gripped leather,
my memory clutched at vinyl
the engine was running,
number plates grinning yellow
as the utter ******* torrent of thoughts
ignored the exhaust
the exhausting
I could drive out forward or reverse
well rehearsed either way
these wheels just don’t know

I wish I felt like clarity and nothingness, or that intangible vapour like stuff which comes off of a power washer at a car wash
in a dark car park
the car's owner absent, away shopping
You were the one who put your fingers in my mouth
I'm supposed to be embarrassed and disappointed
I am both
I suspect you are a good person
you have a sister
who you love
I bet you are different when you go home
I bet you are nice
I hope they know what you do
You are a classical easy ****
But I'm just syllables and escort clothing
For a while I quite liked that
In fact I'm proud
My friends find it funny
You liked the smell of my hair
And gradually I'm piecing these notes together
I think that if I had more crushed up note pages grinding into your back
You would have remembered me
I'm pretending that if you taste that scent again, you'll know
I still have some of you attached to the garments at the bottom of a full laundry basket
