Waiting To Draw Blood Poem by Kirby Wright

Waiting To Draw Blood



Asphalt baking beyond
My blood temperature.
White-and-orange wrappers

Crumbled against the curb.
Taco Bell?
40ish men with bald crowns

Drive a College Hunks truck.
Ninety degrees under trees
Pretending to be umbrellas.

Lizard clings to brick
Halfway up a wall
Smothered by dying vines.

Woman in blue
Seated in shadows
Devours tacos from a box.
