on Belmont Street


on Belmont Street
east side of town
parking lot
rain pouring down
away from the street light
where no one can see
the stranger was armed
and waiting for me

and me,
I was walking
home after work
my spirit was tired
my lungs cried for thirst
I was ready for supper
I was ready for bed
but I was not ready
for what happened instead
