This a haiku.
It comes on like a hooker,
then gives YOU money.
This is another.
I cannot stress this enough,
that words mean nothing.
Some haikus are Frank.
Others are Selma Louise.
But this one's an Anne.
This was meant to be
the Devil's haiku,
but it's five five five.
That wasn't really
a haiku. More like something
out of a nightmare.
Speaking of nightmare,
I spoke to your mother and
she said she's dying.
Let's get simple here.
She's not made of stainless steal.
She was bound to rust.

left bosom--expired visa
with different terms--it bothers me
every fucking instant
i want to give myself a break
before i go crazy--
o heaven forgive me
for such wreched heart and words
but where can i go and what can i do
would not be a relevant question for you
i am damn sure about that
can i finish this poem when i get back myself
as lovers revive once they meet after
years of separation?
hello america
broken i am if that makes you happy
refugee--i am in all left bosom
half daze--
blue feeling--
second thought--
everything within a pot
hello america
are you breathing?
hello america!
every fucking instant
i want to give myself a break
before i go crazy--

for such wreched heart and words
but where can i go and what can i do

Mambo #1
Gas station: House of the Rising
Water—(yeah, that’s it right there).
staring staring in line, circle movement.
sun, trash in ditch: bags
beads cups
shifting in the wind
glistening in the dirt and trample of feet.
heavy bass quakes treble conical concentrations blast.
black vehicle, all-terrain
jacked-up and turning music into
weapon with Einstein #1;
kids & candy apples & beer.
preteen dancers (have they broken
into song?) white ice-cream style trucks
handing out hot-dogs, funnel cakes, fried
fish, fried sausage, chicken-on-a-stick.
(look the preteen dancers are taking a break)
No, they’re dancing the Tootsie Roll
on Lewis.
(I didn’t mean to asshole! ((yeah asshole
!)))
opposing swamp boogies smash into sirens and synchronized
police cyclists, swimming, swimming
in circles, lines, triangles,
all flashing blue light clashing
feverous motor growls into
the elderly.
transparently flocking
down in deep ditch are the rodents they eat
and eat and eat beer and brightly colored cakes
that make them see funny things on the street:
children fighting with balls larger
than a tricycle or
bike carriage with her big eyes fake in the glasses like a Chinese rice hat; she pedals off racistly carrying a family happy to share
a hat a seat shade: unlike the poor Chinese girl:
she slaves away in her seat
each morning before the sun
she cuts her porridge with water.
after food: red beans, rice
meat w/horseradish sauce, vegetables w/guacamole
and crumbled bread that dribbled
onto shirt.

Des Haikus
This is a haiku.
It's not very long but it
will make you wander.
This is another.
They just come right out of me.
Like a bowel movement.
This was a haiku
until I used eight syllables
in the second line.
What is a haiku?
I can't for the life of me
think of an answer.
This is a haiku.
Inuendo is a foot.
Like Pussy Willows.
M.Q.

Post Postmodern World
Computers write our poems:
:\\
a thousand faces in sand
some things never change
light and filled with shreds
cantaloupe
frozen peas
dinner dates
lips synched
//:
This is the post postmodern world
colors are blankets we wear
shoes are made of moving things (like megabytes)
transiting freedom our computers are our children or dogs and cats
some people find that cars are dying but most people agree they are fun
our grandparents are made of metal and we are made of plastic
our food is plastic too
instantaneous becoming has made it hard to grow
Oh and we love green, green is the post postmodern color
the post postmodern world shimmers in daytime when our crystals
froth up our electrolytes and we just plug our valves and keep truckin
coffee is not longer served, neither is tea, we sip octaves above batteries but
cylindrical nonetheless our lips shiver at the touch and glow
we go go go; it’s the post postmodern world we don’t have time to sleep
(we watch TV) and there is always time for a good tweet
if you don’t understand, click here
when we dream it’s about buying pants or meat or telecommunication
that’s right, the cell phone is still a thing, prone to blinking our eyes
we can’t wait for the next Ipad, when it rains you can hold out your hand
because now the rain is green (it’s really a lot better that way)
