A Coke and a KitKat
We crack windows with rocks
hunt cigarette butts and smoke ’em
press doorbells and run
Mrs. Miller told me
not to play with those native kids
said they’re not my friends
We stroll down Broad Street
to 7-Eleven
for a Coke and a KitKat
Brandon flips two brown birds
at each passing car
Diamond giggles at the flying pitch
of honking horns
Moonlight spews
over icy concrete
we joke about girls
tease each other about
who likes who
Brown eyes, like mine
seem like friends to me
