Chinatown by Ashly Salmon
June 24, 2010Chinatown
Streets of San Francisco’s
Chinatown
are lined with liquor stores
garbage
Stuffed away in holes of PVC
in the street cracks
where people walk to
hurry across crosswalks
like ducks or
stand still
have eyes of desperation
of a need for food or beer
The outsider walks by
says hello and
shoots smiles
like UV rays of sunlight
Chinese and Thai
Indian and Japanese food
are in a maze
you start to wonder
if you already passed it by
Adult theaters that
have been there since
the Beats
Like Mitchell Brothers’ O’ Farrell Theater
where Hunter S. Thompson
once lingered
Naked women in
Roaring Twenties
adult club
breathing down necks
scooting their pussies
up stripper poles
then sliding down
spread eagle
with their anus to the wall
Asian woman asking questions
to ones sexuality
asking men in company
if we were a couple
Partying the night before
in a 5 story mansion
with a few hundred people plus
didn’t do a head count
Catered
had a pool
a hot tub
so many people to look at
While Jay Z and
Alicia Keys
new song “New York”
spinned on turn tables
older
younger
African American, Asian,
Caucasian people
danced as they
raised their hands
