All right,
where was I at?
Oh yes, this bit of fluff.
It's just a piece of self;
well, where in hell
did it come from?
What could it be made of?
Not good grammar
that's for sure!
It has no definition,
no form
no shape
no stuff,
just fragmented remnant,
just a bit of fluff.
It must have had some use
or other
like a father
mother
sister
brother.
C'mon now Bucko
what in hell is wrong?
Something's missing,
this constant whistling
hissing in my brain
will drive me nuts.
I just misplaced its meaning;
I'm rid of thought
I haven't bought
erasers now for years.
I'm out of drink.
I'm out of ink.
I'm even out of tears.
The lost,
the cost,
the frost....
Oh damn!
My roaches all are wet.
I'm down to Camels,
Turkish brambles,
what a cigarette.

....just another poet, with his soul in a plain brown folder....and crazy or not, I like the way you think.

Perhaps this fluff
Is just
A touch of you
To share your stuff
I must
