an xmas miracle
Tequila, egg nog
& an infamy burrito
for breakfast
An early morning disappearing act
“No room for us among the dead in the
burnt mountains, not yet anyway” (saith Leweye)
nor rainswept where I recite the 242 choruses
straight from the book of my dumbass dreams
& thank whatever precarious
Peeling a wet ten dollar bill
from the pavement
at the corner of Ocean
& Water streets on this
the feast of the nativity
