Car Wash
there’s a waterfall
hidden in this hole
in the wall
and for a few bucks
you can watch it fall
crash and cascade
like the rush of a wave
then drizzle and drip
“calm before the storm”
rumble of rain in the belly
bubbles blinking
then smack
goes the blue wax,
flecks of green and purple pigment
like seaweed swimming
feel like a fish
in a tank
nose against
the glass
