Hero

william Stafford

 

Scavenged ham & chicken rolls,
turned up the heat,
mocked snide indifference,
‘even when you’re in you’re out
even when you’re out you’re in—
see how the fancy takes you’

~
Where have all the donuts gone?
Last train to San Fernando
End of the world as we knew it
This will be the last donut
Get yer ass back to Eurasia
Rigging in the rigged world

~

Love is the Logo
Does eat oats and doves eat oats
& little lambs eat ivy…

Play for Today

Sit down & pull up a fence…

 

Okay—rain check Day

Two day break from all of it

(Football, Brexit, gardening…)

Question!

(Serious question eyebrow)

Yeah

(assumes if I must face

clears throat & utters)

Where is all this going to?

~

Shit! I though as much

And…

~

Light another cigarette

Pause

(one last wish before the plunge)

~

Hunger?

For what?

snap quick–gobsmack

Think fast blurt it out

No rashers – Danish

Diversionary tactics

~

Just leave me alone

Long pause – dead air waves

O My God!

~

O My Giddy Aunt

Things can never be the same again

Not even the weather?

~

No – Not even the weather

Shit!

Time passes

Time slowly passes

Can I go now?

Sit down – have a donut

~

But I…

Sit down – have a friggin’ donut!

Thanks
