starforce of earth

said his back as he left, he walked like a 
gremlin and had a face like one too
that reminded me of zachary,
why do homeless men always?
he asked for a cigarette and she gave one and a light 
and as he tried to get it lit the scent of flowers flew by. 
i smiled, 
a pile of shit sat on the sidewalk but flowers were flying and 
finally he lit it and smiled so sincere i felt like
dying in the street.
"well thanks!" he grinned and gremwalked away, 
he wore a mechanics jumpsuit  
that said starforce of earth.

down the street a guy tried to skateboard, 
he kept falling but trying
which i feel says
alot.

then the flowers went away
and the city smelled again 
and the clouds covered the sun 
so we stepped back inside.
