Pomona with a best friend (Free verse) by <{Baba^Yaga}>
With the I ching in my lap.
I hit the bus, so cut the crap.
Looky, looky, look, at the taggers.
Soup kitchen shopping-carts and the plastic baggers.
Lo, and behold, the goddess and her fight,
but when the crux is paralleled.
Who has the will to fight?
Who has the will to light?
Me a cigarette, and shut
the fuck up.
Perhaps an angel eating chocolate pudding
could point me to the point,
of spoon on tongue satisfaction.
While one handing joints 'till Las Vegas.
Before renting revenge of the nerds, again.
And purchasing a can of spray starch,
and calling the front desk "early wake up".
Note for the maid:
Leave the ironing board
downstairs, please.
Thankyou,
Ps.
Check envelope
in third drawer down
from the mini-bar--
and by the way bring me
another coffee maker
this ones for kids
or something, for the
love of God.
[Dream, that night after no sex]
Maybe Jesus with his fiscal henchman
could fasten me with sleeves a proper
that would blaze a mighty sulphur
upon my tear stained pleas.
While consoling Christopher Reeves,
and promising him I alone could write
him back in, wheelchair and all.
In the cold distilling embrace;
Of kryptonite & candy jewelery.
Fun-dips were good because
of the vanilla sticks mostly,
and that's a straight fact.
On Euclid Ave.
ollie-ing off of earthquake vaulted curbs.
Their jagged sun white peaks.
180 frontside tail grab, SPLINTER, "ow".
Do you remember that slab of
meat, that rack of beef, that
would knock Fred Flinstone's car over
every afternoon for years?
I ate it.
Under the San Gabriel mountains.
"Where are you now oh Gabriel"
but tooting your own horn.
Massaging 'a' mom's corns.
Yipee kie yo porns
all the way,
until tamale.
That day I watched Tony Alva
break his wrist at the Upland pipeline?
Was the day I knew I needed
a better night job.
Guess What?
You were never so clever as
that dead thing you left upon my
door mat motherfucker.
by the way.
Welcome home.
