issue no. 4:
New Jersey Non Sequitur / Jackson Lassiter
Webster says:
an inference that does not follow
from the premises;
a statement
(as a response)
that does not follow logically
from anything previously said.
I say:
fleeing one-armed bandits
through chill of winter night,
broke and cold -
air through open window
fends off sleep -
Atlantic City Expressway
paves way for quick escape.
But not so fast that I don't have time to read
PAP SMYR
on the personalized license plate
dangling precariously
from the rear
of a much-dinged, primer-grey SUV.
As I pass no time for caution in rapid flight -
swarthy mustached man
in grimy maintenance uniform
nods my way.
