hundreds of dollars
two southern cops
and a border patrol search
later
we found ourselves
setting up
for the big shakedown
armed with wide eyes
and dulled wits
we were ready
for anything
even the ever encroaching desert
arid & alluring
as some sun-baked siren
sweetly singing of half-remembered promises
and unfulfilled madness
the true american dream
betting it all on red
white
and black
while muttering incantations about
father's latest footwear
and being thrown out of only
the finest places
all hands on deck
for the most triumphant
distress signal
ever
heard

 reports, 1d 23h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
