I woke this morning With no hangover After the 10 beers last night I made a *** of hot black coffee Slugged it down Listened to the local jazz AM While enjoying the absence of the sun The cold grey clouds are better company I read a few shorts by Hem And a couple pages of Dos I got off the mattress And threw a few jab and hook Combinations toward the window I got dressed Walked past the picture of Fante On my wall Then I **** In the community bathroom Of my roominghouse I thought about What a man is Should be Probably not this But definitely not My father And I was far from that I tried my best to be Far from all of that

Whats a Man?
I woke this morning With no hangover After the 10 beers last night I made a *** of hot black coffee Slugged it down Listened to the local jazz AM While enjoying the absence of the sun The cold grey clouds are better company I read a few shorts by Hem And a couple pages of Dos I got off the mattress And threw a few jab and hook Combinations toward the window I got dressed Walked past the picture of Fante On my wall Then I **** In the community bathroom Of my roominghouse I thought about What a man is Should be Probably not this But definitely not My father And I was far from that I tried my best to be Far from all of that
