Neanderthal Messiah — 40

Inner Langdon St. Madison, WI XX

The Photographers’ House Annual Graffiti Party:

Four 4-foot speakers thump below

The ‘Ho Chi Minh Trail’ -

A lesser known campus passage.

DJ Yun spins reggae dancehall, Cab, The Cult

Social D’s cover of Making Believe ends -

As a coed selects where on her blank T shirt -

And another girl, from behind her -

[Cupping:] ‘Can I help your penmanship?’

[The two giggle at his hesitant signature.]

…

From behind a back stairway door marked with Theta, a red glow.

[This former speakeasy was said to be haunted.]
