NACHO GIRLS
by M.A. Internicola
one time a girl i was seeing
surprised me by stopping by
with a friend. i was writing
with headphones on and didn't
even hear them enter. they scared
the fuck out of me. that was the
best room i ever had. playboy
centerfolds on the wall. stacks
of books by the best authors
known to man. some shitty single
mattress i laid out in the corner
where no good woman with half
a brain would want to bed down
on. the room had character. gatorade
bottles full of urine. toilet paper for
napkins. some 13 inch piece of shit
black and white that needed a wrench
to turn the stations. the owner of the
house was mafia. he got stabbed seventy
seven times and died on the front
porch. i made love to the words so
many times in that room the four
years i lived there. the neighbors were
vulgar. the heater worked shitty but
i liked it alright. anyway, the girl was showing
me off. i was really a writer,
"michael, this is debbie."-i turned around
in my chair and smiled softly. i didn't
say nothing. it was my turn to scare the
fuck out of them.
