Barred
from Wonderland
with
an idea of poetic license
stuck
to my calamity.
Billowing
hopelessness stalks the
ground
with the horizontal
homeless.
Before
I go, I’ll take three of what she’s
having
and call it a life.
Be
patient, as I count the
pennies
to pay the tab.
You’ve
got nowhere to
go
Captain America…
Being
86’ed forever is a
title
I’d welcome
warmly…
I
can sit on the curb
all
day now
and
portray my pitiful
mistake.
As
passer byes lean against my
new
home.
Trying
to lift gum off
their
shoe.
