recovering slowly, a torso fell

from a beat up truck by a rural motel.

the manager seen how the truck bed bounced

while dust flew up with a rolling sound.



voices appear from the staff outside

in bulbous text in a western style

his mannequin neck spun to turn his face

the bars spilled drunks out frame by frame



girls pushed girls side to side

to hear a suction sound as limbs realign

the crowd justseemed to multiply

they hear his plastic jaw as the news drops hard.
