Simple Question
question asked:
what do you want?
my answer:
I’ll take
a new car,
a new house,
a new job
and a new dvd with
that guy from the show
we used to watch in it.
shaking her head
she clarifies:
for dinner,
dear
I’ll make anything
you want.
Disgruntled Reader
I’m tired of
reading about
writing
of poems
about poetry.
in fact,
I’m tired
of reading
what I just
wrote.
“I write,
what I know”
I hear it
and pity you
if this is
all you know.
look around you.

Cool Words
I wish
I used cool
words when
I speak
but it is
not to be.
I’ve never
been jonesing for
peanut butter
nor can I pull off
the occasional
what’s up, I dig, or even
how’s it hanging.
when I see art
I say
magnificent not
bitchin’.
when I hear music
I do not utter
this is phat.
soon I will work
these words
into my
vocabulary.
next time
you hear from me
I will holler
’sup dog,
let’s bounce.
