83: Life with Mr Juice came up short — charm
-ing & familiar — unfair tenderness in a paper sack.
Hostess Wheel Clacker, bike spinner & fake license & plate.
A poet’s debt. I was mute then.
I found (or again I was speaking in silence)
your eyes are nagging me for more .. admit you miss modern poetry.
You miss the excess & first drag.
Have you read, praise & worth get their daily
Calories drinking coffee & smoking — sleeping to excess —
Surplanted, Juice never saw it coming & I never wept again.
Therefore I’m barren, mute now, painting dumb.
