Saturday

steveston 006 Grey and overcast,

as i shake off last night

with a walk through an old fishing village.

            The alcohol barely makes it

and at 44 i slip

                            towards

                                         stronger forms of escape…

                       hanging with the street…

                playing without fire…

                                                                                       it doesn’t matter.

 

Poem 2

 

no children and no steady employment

leaves one looking…forward to

Friday night conversation

with the cops…

“G do you want to be my best friend tonight.”

“No”

“Are you sure?”

“Positive.”

As me and an old lady

turn a corner

and look for more product.   

 

Poem 3                         

 

the books

in my bookcase

have mostly been read

with various degrees

of understanding…

                                           

Poem 4

 

the advertisers target

primitive emotion with technology

                                                   Lady Gaga

                                                           lets drink, lets dance, let’s fuck

that is not rocket science

                                    but organizing seven billion

is poetry reading youth 006<a href="http://www.bizarremag.com/weird-news/tattoos-body-art/7719/future_mods.html" title="Future Mods" >Future Mods</a>
