No News is Bad News
June 14, 2009 / 2:02 am

Juliette asks me if
You can be an orphan
After eighteen. Begin
With the idea that
You can be an orphan
Anytime. Find your rhythm
With the feeling of total
Separation. End thinking
Of the time you broke
Your ankle, alone and
Scared and how you
Realized you raised
Yourself and nobody
Ever was going to really
Be there. Tell her yes.

No News is Good News
2:09 am
My dad is in the
Philippines. Attempting
To find the meaning of
Life through art and the
Courting of a woman.
My dad is in the
Philippines. Scenes of
Salad green cuisine.

No News is No News
2:13 am
I never read the
News. Ooze blues
Until I'm drawn to
Booze. Expand the
Grand scheme.
Extreme theme. I
Have no love for
Violence. No patience.
I read gossip. The hip
Smart-as-a-whip. TMZ
Is my homepage. I'm
Finally out of the bronze
Age. The internet is
The best cigarette.
Smooth vermouth over
Youth. No news is just
That. A welcome mat
With no key underneath.
False teeth.

Interesting and well structured piece! Happiness is hard to find. We find contentment in the smallest most simplistic of things....those of which has no appicability to our being. Excellent read/job! Keep exercising your wonderful gift!

Jesus, this flew ove my head and exposed me for the idiot that I am.
Deep is too small a word.
I tried reading it at a faster pace but it made it seem more intense.

I will try again but I have to rate this high as it will make me come back for more.

Like HH says. Old school nods yes.

Question, you really don't like this? are you being modest or lying. Which one?
