CHROME
LONG MAY YOU RUN WITH YOUR CHROME HEART SHINING
All the girls have slick legs chunky sandals
carved calves Long medium brown hair ever
so gently curled Big sunglasses Black Mercedez
+white bulldogs de rigueur The men drive souped
up cars in garish colours wear too skinny suits +have
too dark tans One has a silver tooth glinting in the
curated sun A girl beside me says: twenty-five is a
power age Yes Just like 5 was the age of immortality
+60 the age of a creeping yearning for more brave
