the roaches spit out paperclips
and the helicopter circles and circles
smelling for blood
searchlights leering
down into our bedroom
(5 guys in this court have pistols
another a machete
we are all murderers and alcoholics)
but there are worse in the hotel
across the street
they sit in the green and white doorway
banal and depraved
waiting to be institutionalized
here we each have a small green plant
in the window
and when we fight with our women at 3 a.m.
we speak softly
and on each porch
is a small dish of food
always eaten by morning
we presume by the cats.
