it's women i've loved
or men i owe money
so that it's become
difficult to go outside
wasn't it pascal who
said that the troubles of the
world all stem from leaving
one's room?
but they say he who loves
and runs is like
brown sorrow in livery
or a fire doctor in a
jerk store
or a god fearing ass wearer
so here I go around this
bend again
hey have these
stars always
wiggled like that?

occasioned by a line in a joan didion story, yrs ago--
This story has no tags.
Seen that Seinfeld episode? "Oh yeah? I went to the jerk store and they said they ran out of YOU!"
Best I can do. I' don't know much abt poetry, though I do love first stanza in the midst of what I don't know.

thx for reading, e
is both philosophical and cheering, I like
fave lines:
it's women i've loved
or men i owe money

morgan & jules,
too kind, 4 this fluffy somethin'
i thank ye
sometimes fluff is the best Gary, or even 'flarf'.
also, this poem reminds me of blues pianist Otis Spann, Pretty Girls (everywhere I go)
You must be extra-terrestrial because terrestrial don't twinkle that way...
