Just Gone

These streets
these southern streets
that scrub your
memory away
like steel wool
blood flows
pumping harder in
unstable veins
these streets
take the pain away
with their pools
of light every
30 feet
these streets
these southern streets
that wash clean
with July thunderstorms
that wash you away
until there is nothing left
to
hold on
to
