Dark is Preparing to Fall
The symphony of squeeks and moans is already tuning up.
The law clearly doesn’t want my help finding this perpetrator ~ so I won’t take the trouble.
I’m sure a peaceful night’s sleep will be allowed to those who will not defend mine.
So it is.
So be it then.

Any Place Which is Good to Her.
Love’s.
Any place which even puts up with her.
Both of the across-the-street neighbors of this parking space ~ one with litter flapping in its tree, one with electrical engine problems.

Have the Love’s employees stopped smiling at the poet because strange things have been happening to their cars in that lot in the last few days, since she’s been going there for hot water?

Another Vehicle Zapped
The poet notes that the driver of the car in the driveway directly opposite her window cannot seem to control its turn signals this afternoon.

Perp Giggle
Oh, I’m having so much fun!
There are fires breaking out all over the area!
Banks and stores being robbed…
Nobody gets it that I’m behind them all!
My recruits are so identifyable to those who really know me…
But who really does? Nobody!
Except one homeless, hunted poet.
Nobody listens to her.
Nobody’s going to get it, either ~ until I’m too big to be stopped!

Rising Sound Levels in the 24th Street Neighborhood
• Low moaning tone emanating from behind the poet’s van
• That “workman,” back there too, has been banging with the same hammer on the same exact board for the last fifteen minutes (it’ll stop or start varying as soon as he reads this post)

Comfortable Blind
Why don’t you use plain ol’ words
That I am used to hearin’?
It’s your pinko poofter leanin’s
I am really fearin’
Don’t give me all that about
Yer finer shades of feelin’
I think that’s a load of crap
With which you are dealin’
Red is red and blue is blue
Purple when you add ’em up
But it works best fer me to say
Just plain ol’ “red plus blue,” ah-yup!
(No protection for me? My equation is to be made fun of every time I move or breathe until I die? Never to have a single peaceful night’s sleep?
Okay ~ let’s stop trying to work with this system, and start telling it like it really is, shall we?
Remember all those patriotic poems and paens I’ve published? You probably won’t even remember I wanted to get back to those, will you, America of the free speech?
But you’ll damn sure bring these up when you want to type me as undesirable, won’t you?
That’s not what you really wanted from me.
This is what you want?)
