the streetlights
all knotted
together.
fifty million elvis
impersonators
can’t be wrong.
twenty thousand car crashes
happen everyday.
or at least one every six minutes
& that one was me once.
& sometimes it’s easy
to forget i’m me &
the king is dead & every
king is a thief.
the lights go dim
and for a second, i believe
—yes! i believe
that this look-alike
is really him.
twenty thousand car crashes
happen everyday.
or at least one every six minutes
& that one was me once.
