the covert simile
marked by an effusive renegade shopping
bag imprinted with a picture of
Michelle Bachmann
across the plaza
near the Trevi fountain
somewhere like Las Vegas
or Missoula
she was insulted by the thought
America is for Freedom
not what you think
everyone who came here was equal
we are all equal
we are Americans

lumpy bed day
rainy
stayed in bed all day
tomorrow back to work after three weeks off

OFF OFF OFF OFF OFF

(don't know what that's supposed to be)

Not sure if my brain is going to work tomorrow

but my body will be there
I think

I like rainy bed days
but it would be better if I had some food in the house
I always wait until I'm too hungry to do something

I guess I'll smoke a cig.
and then figure out the food

My face is so red. too much sun and I have a three day stubble
maybe I'll get a frozen pizza
pre heat the oven
bingo
Now you're thinking

haha

Sitting on Jack's grave
-it doesn't say Jack though
I need to pee

did not bring a bottle
- a haiku is not enough
it still doesn't say Jack

right in front of
Vee Kay Eisentrant
Jack's grave stone

found this pen in a
flowerpot near the grave
under some garbage

Somebody left two fat brown cigar stubs
like dog poos
and some dimes and pennies

Warm day
at Jack's grave
overhead a plane
and two birds

My red rent a car
is parked twenty
feet away from
Jack's grave

Nice quiet spot
here in Lowell
the buildings look
like Lowell

gonna go to the car
to get a cigarette
and smoke it

Suddenly it got creepy
time to go
no not yet

Paris 2013

As Midnight's broken toil
We ducked inside the doorway
Thunder laughing

The red and white
Striped bag of
Parisian mixed candy "bonbons"
Little black rolls with white inside
Large white cubes of nougat with peanuts
Toffee peanuts
Jujy bears different colors
Lost again not enough streets on the map too many streets to fit on one regular sized map it would be like a tablecloth

After sushi
Waiter didn't know what unfiltered sake
Is brought regular, hot
"No sans filtre, c'est froid"
He brings same sake unheated

At lunch watching business people and other
Odd characters and fashion choices
Charlie was right "sit at a cafe
And make fun of people.. It's
A national pasttime."

Sitting next to me at the next restaurant
A modern humphrey bogart at a table
With ma mere - large matron and a
Young mixed race woman ... Thought the young woman
Was girlfriend but then probably daughter
She is checking him for temperature
Hand on his forehead
Then runs to greet a friend
The man calls her name the food has arrived
She back at table tasting his lunch
Her head practically in the plate
First a large amount of hot beans
Then some of the meat, me watching
We make eye contact through the plastic
Ma mere is working away at a giant steak

 God in his emptiness?
in his absence?
in his black hole?
absence makes the heart grow fonder
If God was around he probably wouldn't be so well liked
"dude never contributes to the coffee fund" - someone at god's office
Thanks for those home runs but why did he have to let my friend get crushed by that bus?
"ASSHOLE!"

... assholy

put your asshat back on and get back to
making it rain caterpillers
hole-y 1
