ricky bolts and gobs of garages
in their snuggy snack pack driveways
with the un un's turned down
so mommie nature don't wake her dawn

and let it bulldog slobber the roses

I put my jacket on upside down again
but it goes with my flip flops
and the girls at the 24 hour vons
say my tattoos make them itch

for something in the produce section

I hate the highways of snobbervile
they never have puddles after the rains
no wonder the children there watch oprah
to know what is important for the day

since they never have had the risk

of mud on their knee high white purity
or the occasion to shiver from a chill
that makes them love umbrella trees
more than a bentley with a kardon on

Me too, my friend...me too...
Hugs and good morning....

DS

If your title is reflective of Carmel by the Sea....There are places there that are a pleasure to me...like the sand and ocean....no different then those in Ventura.  But, you're right about the rest...those children could happen in many a place, and it's pretty sad.  I like the way you see things and how you explain in your colorful way.

ms GS, thanks lady friend for the warm morning whisper

ms martie, yes little neighbor, there is a different side of the castle town when you step behind the concrete pretty plastic..like it is an adult movie set sometimes placed on the innocent seaside..
I too love the sand and ocean there..it is the stepping off the sidewalk that hurts the souls of my eyes

always a pleasure for you to read and wonder, thanks to you
