White Knuckle Boxing


My city breeds
White knuckles

Five by five they march
From the
Highest pedigree
To the
Lowest strain

They smell fear
And multiply
Like rabbits

Fists closed so tight
They become
Purple orange
Swollen
Drained
Suffocated

Crowned with
Pale militia
Waiting to shatter teeth

To throw the first punch

And this city smiles
Best believe
A shark’s
Grin
Lined with broken glass
