lilith

walking back to his car from the sand
the sun was just beginning to exhale the morning
walking back from the ocean
he saw a black van parked next to his car
it had a red strip that ran up the length of it
just like the A TEAM van
but there are other things painted on the sides of the van
there were large air brushed hedonistic she devils
with tails and betty page hair straddling the sides of this van

all mighty brimstone backgrounds
of fire falling from the sky
as she lookes at you with green eyes,
this one holds a whip
and has skull medallions on her stilletto heels
like steal rosed faces of death above her toes

the end of the world was on the side of her van
she looked like she nearly lived out of it
that van
scattered clothing
strange gypsy cloth covering the ceiling
and silver water bowels for baby sheppard dogs
he saw a girl with sleave tattoos
and short black hair
there was a surfboard leaning against the van on the other side
and she was sliding into a wet suit

he got in the car
opened the windows
and told her he liked the van
"It reminds me of the Coop, his devils," he said
she liked that he knew Coop
He started the car and said goodbye
she said goodbye
she had a British accent
as he drove away
he looked at her van once more
driving out of the parking lot
he caught a look at the front of the van
the front of the van
the front of her van had the word "Wicked"
painted in red horror letter across the front

he stopped the car
and walked towards her
