stray dog at dawn

By delinquent linguist

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Shaded beneath the panty-pink phosphorized outline of a eucalyptus grove I feel self satisfaction sitting like a stomach ofCurry, Coconut Milk, and Lentils.lying on a bluff as cramped as I am          I remember shouting prose at the neon matrixof the Los Angeles skylinePrying the fibers of my deluded mindPouting over the precious pearl's exodusYou gave me tea leaves and daydreamsFor salve on the grindstonesAnd I only sat whispering tears over the vaporous contagion of a different culture'Welcome to the world, boy'the moon says with a benevolent smileEasy for you to say, buddy.It seems very pieced together to me any ideas?
