Poem Number 1150
The shopping bag mentality
a spiritual screw loose
for spending with banality
interest flaking onto puddles
...
Strays meeting at midnight
to lick pistaccio ice cream
knowing of the storm
but carelessly irresponsible
...
Always flying to suffer
delays and inspections
secrets hidden from parents
are buried in my suitcase
...
Airport gateways to heaven
idols tackle the night
raining on this body
of cacti impressions
...
i am reminded of a border crossing,
some years ago,
attempted on foot
Only stupidity could have made it possible.
...
A jar of peanutbutter, probed, palpated,
violated in the extreme;
fingered for diamonds or heroin;
i, of course, was smuggling peanutbutter.
...
checking these AWOL teeth,
they missed the feathers
they missed the essence
of a new life without the muzzle
...
i suppose its the human condition,
to never expect the absurd,
better, its thought, to cast a suspecting
upon the illogical.
and so, so easily are the logicians
made headless hens.
reason enough for Sartre to vomit his meat,

sorry, typing too fast, the word "eye" should follow "suspecting",...f

I have a hard time adding anything to 'vomit' :-) M
