My anger

Is a face

(See?)

My eyes shine

My voice is like a NPR voice

It buys hours

And access 

It pays the bills

It tells stories

My shoes and my heart

aren't yours

Don't touch them

ever

My anger 

My anger

My anger

Is all of these

Is none of these

Is none of these

None of you 

might know 

None of you 

think

But me me me

Nothing like me

Like greed 

Like hoarded (?)

Captives

A great pungent hate

Bottled in factories

In penicillin factories

In the smell of lilacs

 Sleeping

the coyote sleep

In penury 

In Lost Oak

In twisted mojo

In Borax

Trona

Saline washes 

Bishop night

By death by plane crash

By Manzanar camp

Spirited snow covered mountains

Peyote rings 

Houses abandoned with a thousand toys

Plastic wheels

Plastic dolphins

Plastic miner Joes

Gone now

Lost in ambergris 

In whale sperm

In Cochise eyes

In Chiricahua 

Tortillas and huevos 

In bloodlines 

Of LaVars

And El Sobrante

 Another

beach walk morning 

My plastic camera rejected the color film

crumpled it and spit it out

It knows best

many shots of empty sand 

with a tiny figure 

way 

the fuck off 

in the distance

Sky 

clouds some 

ocean

Mostly

Just light

and black spots

Many black spots

Another

Beach walk

Morning

 The casualties of everyday life

Batten 

Beaten 

Battered 

Buttered

Chapped & Battered

Mis en scene

  Parlez vous 

Je voudrais aller 

S'il vous plait

C'est vrais

Come say 

Some say

Okay

Others are just overdue 

for a change

Steady 

as she 

           goes

Lightning listens

to upright golf clubs 

         and bitch trees

     shaddap already!

you're burning my skin

     like a 30 watt bulb 

illuminates

  tired old women

and dogs made of linoleum

Ruff!  Grrrr rowr 

  report to ACC

violent animal unleashed 

lightning in the living room

  Tore a hole in the radiator

     electrified the bathtub 

  poor old granny

 

 

 

 Boisterous 

ironclad 

punitive

Words words words

The shake 

and the rattle

filthy carpets 

marijuana smoke

clack clack clack

I'm a GOD

how dare you not worship me?

Lol

Hearts or Gin Rummy?

It's not today

breathing like a Dragon

atop a mountain of jewels 

 meaningless

nothingness

SOMETHING

hah 

"Badges?"

The Headlands await

Sunny Sunday 

Trees weeds water birds 

 

 

 

 Balls burn

See the hosing 

Henry Miller and

Big Sur

Kerouac didn't show up

He remained in Ferlinghetti's cabin alone 

drinking 

La dee da

La dee da

 He asked me why

"Another day in lonely times 

each day he left his older god behind"

Bzzzzzzzzrrrrr

He asked me why 

Why should I ?

 Flecks 

of spittle

In sandstorm dreams

Morocco meters 

Take Bimbo

Biscuits

Grown men wear dress like things

and yell at Christians 

"GO YOUR OWN WAY, DON'T TAKE MY ADVICE"

Flecks and spittle

standing in the street

you drink mint tea and majoun

Kif all night long

while the dogs bark

and no one takes out the garbage

 I got 

sidewalked 

sidestepped

sidewinded

  I sinned and 

I sined

and cosined 

   in calculator relationship blues

   I played G harmonica 

on the wrong key song

I sang out of tune

I marked your face

With Harold's purple crayon

and drew a giant lizard

How you doin'?
