sunday

far from meetings
thewindows throw light
in from chest high second
floor walk through the
doorway and short landing
and across her room
and lean with arms crossed
checking out the hood

vacum stands waiting to be
talking for a walk
the cat hair the dog hair
the little crumbs
lifes little details

dishs need putting away
in the white tray
in the quiet kitchen
television just talks
away and away
the backyard collects
the frozen dogshit
where Im going with
my brown wooly slippers
to use a tack hammer
end and the real hammer
to loosen up the days
collection frozen into
the little landscape
of the backyard
simple mathematics
and science

cat litter is easier
the little scoop

cars idle in the parking
lot Twiggs has pots of
coffee and i have change
just make the five minute
walk over there for a
real coffee or I could

just make my own here
filter squashed down
around the edge of the
ceramic cup grounds
poured into the middle
and then kettle water
dribbled down
stare out the kitchen
window at the escarpment
wonder how long it takes
to die of cancer when
your full of it

time to think
ponder say goodbye

im old fifty almost
and last year all the
aches and pains moved
in This is my pain
here here here
and here
Welcome!

222's for the pain
and codienne for the brain
little white plastic bottle
with red safety cap
gonna make it to payday
just got enough

used to get this little
waitress to walk on my back
no bartendress it works
sometimes the simple things
just work

like breathing in and out
and enjoying hell
