LOUD TALKERS

The world has changed all at once
Cherry blossoms in the sun
Who knew the apocalypse would come? 
Did you see the fox pups’ orange fuzz? 
Candy cigarettes melt on your tongue

Your childhood
Your parents’ love
The pills
In a paper cup

At JB’s, underneath everything

Did you lose your sense of time
Waiting for The Vernes in line
High Life cans and loud talkers summertime
Did you hear Faby’s fuzz from outside? 
Sitting leaning up against the bricks
Frisson in your spine

Your childhood
Your parents’ love
The pills
In a paper cup

At JB’s’s underneath everything
