poem of the day 08.07.09

self-loathing

read my journal
and discovered that i am
redundant
that nothing ever
happens to me
except the passing
of another day.

wish i could sit in silence
with basho.

clean issa’s hut.

brooklyn is so
hot and weary
i am nothing
but a refrigerator
full of scotch
rotting iceberg lettuce
and an old box
of arm and hammer
lingering toward
the dying light
in the back.
