15 Words or Less Poems: The Meter's Running

Wake up your poetry brains with 15 Words or Less (guidelines here)!

I was downtown (Minneapolis) earlier this week, and my parking meter was all fogged up. It looked kind of cool. To me, this image makes me think of:

*  A jukebox
*  Odd creatures in a foggy aquarium
*  An astronaut helmet
 
Here's my poem:

Jukebox After the Flood

Song titles?
Inky blur

Artists?
Damp mystery

Deposit quarters
Dance

to the
beat you're given
