Lowercase paradise

Sysco ice cream,

Imperial Soda (a lot like Moxie).

Roxy Music on a radio

(a lot like Moxie, really).

Right now without

a crimp. No new busted

transmission cooler

to cost me a bundle and set me back.

Never a slickster with the coin

of the realm; rather more of a talker

and former hothead.

Though age and advice have tempered the temper.

I'm playing pretty flat this year.

Blowing it, really, left and right.

So man, I love these small prizes,

these lowercase paradises.

This hot stoop for one:

some sun and time

to nurse this frozen

Imperial Moxie Sysco sodafloat.
