i can´t eat sincerity
but you look fine in
your red-beret..
you´ll share with me

that which is mine-
i have this generosity
all my life-
the cellulose covers

the razor blade..
blos-it tickles really!
this is your way...
we can laugh..

i have a hole in my
head-
7 to be exact-
in no order of import-

one to put bread,

i have a hole in my pocket

i have a hole in my pocket
where i would put
something in-un
imagine-able and then run
around leaving it
everywhere for others
to find-like small green creatures-

call it love or affection
(or money..)i should say
had-i was ten..coming from
the sea discovering lungs
and legs and a stilling sky
they lift tails o pray!
and various salient features..
