My Tripod Page

my chest has pulled itself in
and i have twelve hundred cocoons lining
my stomach, lining?
looking around at faces for the last time
not smiling, not really praying
just got a new upgraded job
with a better book, in its packet
something about interracialreconciliateafterlifeuphoria
i paced
wondered if i really deserve second winds
the art show last week welcomed the drunk
she meant to tie up the instructor for the rest of his life
about potentials
and children growing
trust funds
maybe a learning disablethelaziness
she took us to dinner to celebrate the paint
i had a beer with my steak in spite
felt myself growing
hitting up the numbers
she was driving the murderous box all the way to north carolina
what case used to call home
cute, calling a city a state
remember, you are heading north
has become a cliche'
my tires turn the globe southward spinning
all those indian tears
rolling down my face
right.
self sufficed
