renegade riverboat driver

Living as degenerate gambler in the bowels of hell…commonly known as Las Vegas i find myself tired as the Knuckleheads surprise and i keep adding to my bankroll…

my short collections of poems for the shaw seems incongruous with the heat of the desert sun and i can know longer consider myself a saint or even a repentant sinner.

My face is burnt (from wind)                                                                                  my legs are tired (from daily walks)                                                                       my back is sore (from afternoon swims) 

“my dreams they aren’t as empty as my conscience seems to be…”

and my lungs are full of tar and nicotine.

I am not drinking as the lows outweigh the lows                                                and the highs are no longer than an evening…

it finally comes down to this…

to what? to who? to how? to why?

well the album has been sung                                                                             the poems have been written                                                                              the movie is in the can

did i complain? Ha!

attending a show at the Venetian,                                                                          a hotel on the strip called

peace out.

Bin Laden and the Conservatives

image

"We are going to be not responsive or impressed by words," Clinton said. "We would have to see actions on the ground, and that is not yet at all clear.”

Bin Laden is murdered and “justice” has been served…the fanatics will die or worse for their beliefs…way of life…dangerous…dangerous…dangerous…

oh well it is sunny on the desert and lady luck is smiling…                                    i have won at the casinos a few days in a row…

Trump is a clown who’s mere presence                                                             on the national stage is evidence                                                                           of capitalisms decline…

oh and in Canada…

Piggy can now go back to his academic posts and write books which are as stilted and convoluted as he…read one…I did.

and Layton getting rub downs in Chinese massage parlors which are notorious for extra service…but of course how could he know? Isn’t Chow Chinese?

Harper is a rock star now and he takes a majority…                                  

I’m wrong again                      october 2010 151 i hope.

vegas ain't bad




april in the desert

the flowers are yellow
purple and pink...
the sky is blue and
the rock is red...
the rabbits are thin
and snakes are hidden
under crevices and sun

songs in the wind
