Apt 17
Chewing down tough steak
You cut with the one knife
In your place
How can your mother visit
This silverware drawer sham
Truck route side your window
Catcalling
Your widowded faucet
Landlord won’t move
Unless you roll him a J
M. moved
Out. She took all those maniac boyfriends
She would leave sleeping drunk down the hall
To turn you into a maniac
Pressing breasts enormous
Mouth sucking rapid breath against you
But she’s got to go, he’s
Waiting
The boyfriends loved your poems
Showed up late with beer
And never smelled your fingers
One of them had a highway patroll smile
Deuce and a half diesel fingers
A desert heat stole the echo from his voice
He was certainly a killer
You can close the bathroom door to keep the faucet quiet
Land lord won’t turn a wrench
Unless you roll him a J
Or jerk off in his ash tray living room
He can hear you rubbing it down the drain
He ignores the women sounds
Has to fill number 20
You tell him,
Bigger tits and more boy friends
California hates my bathroom sink

Thank You so Much to Dennis Robicheau for throwing this party and splitting the keg with me. Thank you To Johnny Lim For supporting Art, Music and Poetry in Long Beach.
To my dear friend Eric S Boyd and his crew of underpaid migrant workers for their tireless efforts in creating this site. Eric put this whole thing together out of the kindness and goodness of his happy little heart, and I love it. Eric got a great lookig site up and running quickly. He was a consistant professional with insighful ideas and a true vision. I was informed and involved throughout the production. You know what else is awesome? I googled myself and this site was the first result!Not the soccer player, track star guy in Illinois but the actual me. The poet you’ve all come here to love. Isn’t that cursive font cool? Yea, he did that. He also filmed the two videos you can see on this very site. Isn’t he great?
Thanks Eric, those migrant workers deserve a raise, they’re migratory.

when I was twenty I ate a handful of mushrooms and challenged god to a fist fight
I’m still standing and I have sex twice a day
that night my arms felt like American legends
I realized my fists had been masquerading as hand
my fingers felt most at home nestled in the crease of my palm
as if they had been created that way
Odysseus needed GPS
bring it in
take a knee team.
blasphemy is a made up word
holy water will rust your bullets
prayers are for hangovers
and whore houses
there are snakes at your ankles
this not the time for closed eyes and soft words
only the worms are waiting
there is no hurry
