1.

i search the street

4 cans, collecting their dust

& their anonymous dew

(Natural Ice® , Bud Light® , Coke® )

wet with the stains of lip-locked

animosity, in belligerent & aggressive

worship with a steady grip;

a sump pump 

sucking away feces

like a horrible habit, a bad omen…

 

vagabonds smile @ me

vagabonds know me…

 

the homeless beg for quarters,

nickels, dimes, half-dollars

as i grin, my moneymaker

wide open & not@all shy, my smile

shining more excited

than an erect penis

saturated with K-Y® brand

warming liquid lubricant…  i share…

 

i share sublimely

like coco butter on dry lips:  thoroughly

slick.  I share…

 

but can i please get a couple $$$

4 the cans

please?…

 

2.

ah, but your lust like shadows

(dripping with the silhouette

of sweat - thick as mascaraed

tears & black)

often goes awry in a mist of nothing…

 

ah, but how you sublime

in mornings when erect

is a fact of life…

 

ah, but how your sublime

mystifies my evenings

when Viagra® is a must

that needs 25 minutes of patience,

a kiss, a melon, nasty-talk,

a hand (soft as mother nature’s other

soft variety of freak) & tender caresses

in your manly regions.

 

 

lips and lips

finger puppets & strings,

lovers, lotion, tempers,

giggles & the effervescence of sparkly

language, the door,

“bitches brew” - i thought

i knew you

 

how i crave

watermelon & her seed, sweet

as good sex on a tuesday…

 

3.

what am i but, a thought

a whisper, a laugh

upon the condition

of traditional culture soiled

& dumped like dirty diapers,

you know the 1s:

discarded, neglected

& unseen

by an unknown daddy

 

what are we,

but a passing glance

upon the very wind

of that thought

 

what are you & i (this we)

together, but

lonely like oak leaves

in down-south july:

green

 

shall we jealous?

shall we jealous?

 

my brother - shall we jealous together?

 

4.

ah! but how i crave

honey dew & her seed, sweet

as good lovin’ on a Wednesday, a Natural Ice® ,

Royal Crown® , 7Up®

 

but can i please get a couple $$$

4 the cans

please?…
