I watched my yellow cat invade my red cat in the yard

the feline war has raged for years

so I assumed it'd be too hard

for me to drive my foot between them

I would never risk the scratch

just to prove to one or both of them

a cat is just a cat



again I watched my cousin Greg watch MTV inside his home

he makes fun of the hip-hop videos from the couch he rides alone

snug in the cushion of his cackling

he forgets his looming doubts

he has relied on this for years

you will not yank the carpet out

no, no



these are my friends

this is who they have been for always

these are my days

this is how they stay

hey hey

(ok check this out)



I watched this dude each night

same table

who creates and crumples up

his eyes are wide from sipping endlessly his endless coffee cup

he feeds me quotes that lonely goat

I watch him grazing

I will not stop him when he rambles;

I’m becoming one myself.

Lou is bugged and shot up with drugs.

He sweats this bird he hardly knows.

All that he wants is to see someone he respects without their clothes

so like some hybrid mother/lover she’d soothe and heal his wounds and kiss

those dying ears so softly that the reaper stops to swoon. Oh please.

I watch my neighbor’s son play with his shotgun in the street.

I think I’ll blaze all day and marvel at the mass of food I eat.

It’s strange; I’m skinny when I’m standing but I’m Buddha when I sit,

and if I’m truly so enlightened why’d I waste your time on it

as I look back at all these crossroads and the middle where I stay,

right up the beaten path to boredom where the fakest fucks get laid

by the faux-finest finds It’s been that way and god damn you,

how you stay, with every scummy, crummy hour of the scummy, crummy day.
