I would have done so already.
There are thousands of words lined up waiting for attention at my IBM Selectric III. there is a tenseness in my shoulders which is found to be un-ignorable. I read the Harper’s Index and as usual found irritation and disgust among its figures. There is no way out of this mess – only through it, maybe.
Life isn’t a rat race but a series of uninteresting mazes without cheese at the end. No cheese, not even the government cheese.
certainly no wine and crackers unless you are in a daycare filled with white folks. proof of God’s sense of humor can be found in every bathroom across the nation simply by locating the sink and looking above it at eye level.

the bells in the chapel sounded
do you love me.
I found god, the devil, narcotics and heaven in situ.
areas close to the Grimsvotn volcano were plunged into darkness.
and the day passed without further recourse, without further comment.

off the cuff
Most of the greatest poets it seems really are assholes. I believe poets to be highly opinionated egotists bent of displaying to the audience the poet’s mind and naked view, almost a forced voyeurism, of not only the world the poet occupies but the audience that reads them as well. As a poet you must be ballsy and arrogant to even consider participating in the art as an adult as a serious pursuit I mean to say.
hand some women a banana
and they eat it.
Hand it others
and they masturbate on the spot.
off the cuff
but most would talk
about it, indefinitely.
meanwhile, I’ll
sleep as sound as poet in
post
coital recreation
aftermath.

back to writing but feel there needs to be something new. Some other aberration to full the void of the quintessential.
entropy is perpetually resolute.
