Day 4.

I can still see you
through the oversized hoody
making your black skin even more pervasive

you keep me at a versus state of mind
constantly living city of my own - with no one around
but you and yours
in a circle of trust - ring of hustlers
married to the streets - on fire

tonight.

you will abuse her

again.

thanking her
in the morning for something
to live for,

yet I still
question if I should love that
or hate you
with the subway heat
