Suckle on
Coal coughing sugar tits
Silence the inside words
Hear to the scissory chirps
Of the nighttime sparrows
A good dog will always
Ruin a good tennis match
Stump emerges from the earth
Like a baby dinasaur from it’s egg
The hornets mourn
At my cars grill
Smoke fills the air
Softens the harsh light
Morning is my favorite
Time of sleep
Dream walking spoons
Light through the basement window
Before the breath moves
To the background
And eyes start talking smack

Paradise Lost virginity
In a church parking lot
I wasn’t worried about
Where to hide my gun
Baseball diamonds in the rough
Forgotten plots of genius
Dead things on the side of the road
Smoke through bullet holes
Snacks that don’t make you
Hate yourself
Golden hills burnt black
Billboard bushes
And fast food tumbleweeds
The birds returning
Bridge NO. 68.451
WHITEWATER RIVER
All caps, Helvetia, green background
Half of the sky is gray
And the other half is white
Beating things down
Blowing things up
At this moment
None hurt my head
(This poem was recited for the first time on Saturday, April 11, 2015 at Kirby’s Beer Store, in Wichita, KS)
