we
toured
the
dampened caves
of
underground
garages
populating
the
apartments
that
lined
the
end
of
our
street
.
each
entrance
an
open
mouth
lolled
before
us
,
a
rough
tongue
of
pavement
.
we
rode
three
-speeds
down
steep
inclines,
making
crosses
in
the
air
to
protect
us
from
cars
gunning
the
gas
to
go
upward,
games
of
chicken
we
’d surely
lose
.
we
weaved
our
wheels
through
parked sedans
and
mini vans, peeked
into
their
interior
lives
,
wondering
what
the
owners
looked
like
,
shouting
out
to
one
another
in
the
dark
,
yelling
lies
until
they
rang
true
.
