[to the whore who took my poems]
next time take my left arm or a fifty
but not my poems:
[2 p.m. beer]
nothing matters
but flopping on a mattress
with cheap dreams
[view from the screen]
you must some day die for nothing
as I
have lived.
[note to a lady who expected rupert brooke]
but suicide fails as you get older:
there’s less and less to kill.
[some people]
some people never go crazy.
what truly horrible lives
they must lead.
