What Evan Nicholls Can Do In His White Ford Ranger Pick-Up by Evan Nicholls
On April 16, 2019 by adminOne: Evan Nicholls can live in it. He can wave to an orgy
of cows under the field oak. Nod to the bull on the hill.
Sleep back in the steel bed, by nobody or somebody.
Two: Evan Nicholls can kill in it. Probably on accident,
a person or himself. The mathematics of truck plus tree.
Or the barrelling off of a sea cliff. Make somebody a body.
Three: Evan Nicholls can pick-up and go in it. Become
nobody. The rubber could scree like a chicken hawk.
And ‘Bye.’ Forget both the living and the dead.
