On roads from here to never there is a rubber vendor
a receiver and a sender
a map inside his shoe
A decal from a ball-gum dispenser
a service call from a ghost
a set of keys and a route
Note cards from a deadman’s chest
a box for the boss in the trunk
a message for a not so great pretender
A code for the road
another county to cross
another location just can’t be lost
Balloon man don’t fall
watch the sink don’t come off the wall
when you stand on it to reach the nixpix lock
and refill the slots
and sharpen the tooth
Watch the keys in your pocket don’t fall
and crack the pins till you can’t back in
A slug in the slot
a bump on the head
down off the sink
the snow is falling
into a jammed mechanism
the machine is working and back on the wall
another service call down the road
rubber vendor
