I'm Goin' To New York City, I'm Leavin' On A Train

god made food
the devil
the cooks
- joyce

slopery slip sliding talking remembering no can't solvering some mystery or other nor nother

tip trod toward tequila bar mexican settling wrestling and football t.v.

saloon door swing open music stop dead silent heat...

air broken by moustache laugh and step forward in

by back slap how-de-do and a welcome never felt so and much

belly up to clink glass accompaniment set to music of the spheres

and the pure joy of it all covers up, washes over, the pure truth:

the mind is past its glory

-the road is out before me
the moon is shinin' is bright
what i want you to remember
as i disappear tonight....

show me a poet
who didn't drink
and i will proudly
raise my glass
and toast
those shitty poems
