Names Change by Johnny CrimsonShe sat up front
leg lapped over
upper thigh
low-slung shoulder.
She dipped and weaved
under dressed
how tightly wound
her garments kept.
I spin the wheels
red light risk
she steals a gulp
with flask bent wrist.
Reaching back
with tempered sustain
I grab the note
and then refrain.
For she leapt away
an over seat hop
the note unfolded
caught in door-stop.
Turned on phone
dial-send-speak
her parents pick-up
I've had her for weeks.
Waiting for ransom
they pleaded in screams
"For Tanya we must."
They grunt,she bleeds.
Growing bored
with this end
swing wheel quick
turn around the bend.
Front yard stalk
for schoolgirl prey
the note unfolded
the name was changed.
