they are the trees of skin
leaning on a wind
that ended before they were born
when god's breath quit
trying to put life in
a hollywood adam or madame
with a bosom habit
heartless

wishing for the love cans
that are drug behind
the junk yard caddy
up on blocks
while the stolen rims spin
on a homie's short ride
three shots past a nine
and then third time, time

as an eve this time
til he likes the comfort
of punishment
better than the freedom
of discovering alone
on the outside
where life is a flicker
from a gum wrapper tin's

insignificant discolorations

My feet felt that corner
once upon a long ago
even then
best seen in b&w...

Good morning, Dark...

missed you.

My time here seems like a hit and run these days...

Hope all is well Mr. D!

You paint such glamour - not.  You speak truth and give a picture of life that the movies forget when they speak of Hollywood - you know I love looking through your eyes -
