Turbulent

: 1979

paula writes:: " That year the leaves fell in the summer
Rosie's bait shop sold blood and sandworms
and the boardwalk
became a memoral stage
for a dead punk rockers dedication

music rose up from the planks
that year the leaves fell in the summer
the concrete corner shop sold broken blood vessels
and the A train stalled at the boardwalk
changing little girls into mothers

smoke bellowed between the train cars
the bodega sold blook root and papers
that year the leaves fell in the summer
while the hotel ruins at the boardwalk
became a playground for teenage lovers




laughter echoed from the its broken windows
the beverage store sold bloody mary mix and colt 45s
and in the bathroom at the boardwalk
That year the leaves fell in the summer
and decorated the bathrooms as cigar lounges for the no where generation

vision was lost that year
sam sold blood baths to unexpecting brunette customers
who sunbathed in front seats at dusk
and waited for the fall to spring
into winter to end
that year when the leaves fell in the summer

10/99 copyright Paula Curci "
