 It's a crackhead with a dime bag and a dream It's a fresh pair of white kicks with a check It's bottle caps glued beneath dress shoes It's three dollars in the tank It's catching rainwater in a tin cup A firefly in your palm Buying sunflowers for yourself on a cloudy day It's a moon in the sky as if in a school play It's your father in the audience Joy is skipping school or recess It's a screen without static aluminum foil antenna It's when the belt buckle snaps
