On Huntington Avenue

The Gee St. Motel 
was the sort
of place that
police cruised
checking plates
when a car
had gone missing
from the nicer
part of town.
Carla was Queen
and she loved
me
but Gold Grill
Daphne
was her man.
The same one
that took
Big Fish's time
right before the
Fish died.
Daphne belly up.
But that ain't
happened then
and Carla thought
I's special
and smoked
all her dope
with me.
Sometimes I
stayed at the
Motel with her
sometimes with
Derek For Real's
baby momma
next to JoJo's trap
down the street
on Huntington Avenue.
