first...happy 36th to Kris Collins. A great poet
genius at work
i wonder what rabalais
would do in a moment like this
what would fante say?
hamsun?
hemingway?
i sit back and listen to the radio
wondering how anne sexton would
capture this moment
the kind of spin that f. scott
would put on it
i think i know what shakespeare
would do
kerouac would set his typer
going like a machine gun
or was that bukowski?
whitman would howl
and jeffers would shut the door
to the word
villon would steal this moment
so might jean genet
in a moment like this
i think about what all the great ones
would do
then i update my profile picture
on facebook
i read a celebrity gossip site
look at old lady porn
and wonder what’s to eat
in the fridge.
