malcom mooney is walking
to work
malcom motherfucking mooney is walking
to work
the allan b. locke school
the children are all
out side
the children are on the
out side
and the in side
of the allan b. locke
school
and they don't know
no they don't know
they don't know
malcommotherfuckingmooney like i know malcommotherfuckingmooney
and he is walking
in the door
he looks typical
i'll
say that again
he looks typical
raincoat
hat
slim
cropped hair
no longer wild and driven
batshit crazy by the stylish but somehow still german
with repetitious rhythms and
twelve years since ‘below
this level there is none’
if that was 1998 and i
live in buffalo now
then i don't live in
atlanta no more and
the elephant is no longer in the room
most days
