I

want

while

I’m

more

than

less

because

why

not

be

fore

dark's as light as it gets

it’s just

because you

were there

when your

god failed

to be

our frugivorous father loved the sunrise

because he was already awake

To An Old Drunk In Copenhagen

subject to our time

which takes up space

we take our beers for a walk

having lost another tooth

having smoked another sentence

we might have spoken

with the drunk composure

of a new york state he

felt sorry for something

the pain of something good

hollow the de-educated sober addict's

dearly discarded naturally cruel

reduced to television and insulin

now is only a matter of time

one man's time's
too many to subtract
mens from one
man's enough
