1000 mile/hour caffeine head--she even said yes to a ball game

in the spirit of getting what she needs

pitted against the beat
street vs homemaker keep
tough as tender nails
railroad spike

the gullet of recognizable bravery
shivering in night sweat dance
moves like a queen
a real heartbreaker against the wall
where others shiver timbers and mortar
loose
tremble like a champ and call it real
keep it company
the hammer's in my pocket and sings like a dream
