Eve Jobs, who knew-- funny firecracker
with bated jodhpurs

please take my call

O it says “Hot”
Boudin

there goes that guy

carrying his cardboard beg sign
like a dead raccoon

that spot by the river
where everyone but everyone
will be watching
the Eclipse

19

He’s not tipsy he’s my brother
After the laughter a lack of undies
Only a fool

headless corpse found
out at topless bar

Johnson’s Concrete v
Concrete’s Johnson

20

Minnesota nurses strike v
homeless mermaid clochard

pink pilsner v “I can smell time”
Saxon Princess v King Egfrith

Still lusting after Ms Moldanado, typing teacher,
after all these epochs

21

narrow alley v skinny ally, ahoy

a bowling ball of butcher knives v
insider baseball

wallflower v Allflower

chess v chaos. It was like watching piss run down
the hill I’d rather watch pissrun downhill
delightful ruddiness for us is the color of breezes

metacognition v metamucil

Dinosaur v Nirvana

22

Duck duck goose v pink pink haunted

Pink Pilsner v pink pumpkin v haunted whopper

stolen kisses v pump purses for next of kin

Some Girls v some limes v no lime left behind

your tub full of bubbles & yr cigar box guitar

23

If shy, wear AINTS bag

This was just before I burst into flame

24

Flames jumped from treetop to treetop v
Man takes a shit on dogwalk
mail that poem thru the TV
And Taint the Plaintiff

I shit you not, Four Quartets is full of Whitman
inside outtakes

erectile dysfunction v escalation domination

25

Eugenie scoffs
I had some Warhol broth for dinner

Let's fun

crank the Dinosaur
and cut the merliton vines
off of Robert's house

26

merliton v melatonin

Everybody drank everything

The spirit of the nonsense

Eat Bertha’s Mussels v wild animals
affection-trained at Africa, USA
