When they cruised the streets together,
all the buses and pavements roared back
Their faceless moving in sunburned tracks
left them with nothing to say to each other—
There’s usual silence
over unusual nuances;
Cradling and watching what sugar and beans
become few and far between
no matter how wide the streets;
And so did they stand apart and always lethal,
gripping each other’s neck and won't let go

I appreciate that your poems are more accessible now, that I can actually depend on some lines to provide.
Need to ask, however, about your punctuation and capitalization. Are the deviations deliberate? If yes, why?
