 I'm not a coming of age novelist

tattered and dog eared
dropped beneath a chair in a street cafe
I'm a three piece suit from 1940
riddled with Tommy gun bullet holes
On St. Valentines Day
I'm a Cadillac 
patched and oily
    Smelling like gasoline
    Empty peanut butter jars
JIF
in the backseat 
   IM A MISTER PEANUT
ANTENNA THING
