Electricity Spirits


Fumbling departure, race across the plains.
Details, details.
Electricity spirits, down to one lane.
East Texas, the greenest of all.
Huge pines, flea markets and yellow roses.
Looping, diagonally through the swamps.
Playlist with old Kanye, when he rapped.
Unreliable connections, Cajun cells.
Sunset on the Mississippi, festival lights.
The southern route, to 10.
Where the hurricanes came, and will again.
The Biloxi blues, a casino double down.
Nothing worse than meth heads, sad junkies.
Speedy little cars, smoking cigarette butts.
Temporary misfortune, our charmed life.
Past midnight, this town was sleeping.
Gulf of Mexico, with its white sandy shores.
Codes and keys, exhaustion and adreneline.
'Bama, got to erase my mind.

"1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Maniacs And Friends

last night i dreamed i forgave everybody for anything ever done anytime before. there were fathers, brothers, sisters, and mothers, not to mention extended family. then the people all around -- toilers, drivers, watchers, lovers, maniacs, and friends. things they did, said, implied, yelled, things they ignored, they insisted, they resisted. i was talking with each of them individually, taking my time, and we were committed. nods and shakes, aknowledgments accepted and replaced with a debt of some sort. a responsibility to forgive others in the same manner, slate picked clean and put up. minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and generations will pass either way.
