Kacy Crowley — “Nickel to the Stone” (from Anchorless) — Nickel to the Stone - Anchorless

“. . . little Mexican houses, vines of wire /

a gate that just don’t quite shut /

along the sides of a hopscotch square /

two girls listenin’ to themselves /

on a worn-out tape player /

‘We’re gonna be big stars /

if I could just get this pencil /

to rewind my tape that far . . . !'”
