i'm so distracted counting hickeys on the cashier's necks
i have a hard time choosing my burger combo—especially
on mondays after a weekend of the local's wild love-making
around here hickeys mean true love
juanita has the most hickeys and hers are the darkest
they run from her earlobes to her clavicle
i've seen her boyfriend sniffing her
he's the greasy dude in charge of fries
she does a pretty good job on his neck too
when hickeys turn greenish-yellow
they make my bowel rumble and make it hard to think
of enjoying a nice super-size order of fries
in between sucking hickeys
these local women spend their offtime combing their hair
and making their fingernails real fancy
the men use up their time polishing the chrome on their cars
and scrubbing their hubcaps real nice
then airbrushing flames on their chevys
some folks say there is no culture around here
i say there is
