STUNNED
cant
sleep
and
have trance music
on
my personal sound track
which
all most drowns
out
the tinnitus
overwhelming
my hearing
and
the only images present
are
the shadows
and
lights passing
on
the street
no
word yet from
the
Carnegie newsletter
of
my poems being
judged
in
Paul's contest
met
old friend Horst
and
we talked for two hours
over
coffee, tea and a
peanut
butter cookie
i'm
sure there
were
a couple of world problems
we
didn't manage to solve
but
really like all others
we
are being ignored
but
that is only important
if
you really give
a
shit what happens
this
mornings headline
says
that a bomb
has
gone off in NYC
29
people injured
and
another bomb discovered nearby
another bad news story
book
ended by
the
good news
Nike
has a new golf ball
and
the most annoying
ad
in history
about
getting a “CHIP”
mortgage
recommended
by
several elderly people
whose
false teeth
don't
fit very well
and
say “CHIP” with a lot of spit
it
is funny once or twice
but
like a bad joke
boring
otherwise
piss and moan
piss
and moan
