Two chances to see the rest of me

May 4th @ Word Beat
Mediterraneum Caffe
2475 Telegraph Avenue
(near Dwight Way) Berkeley
7pm ~ 9pm

read john sweet’s woman with a naked man on a leash

sniff art, the blub

man says
please

says
thank you
or maybe nothing at all

maybe sends me envelopes
filled with spare change and
blurry black and white photos
of murdered nuns gathering
flies in south american countries

and being mostly human
i keep the money
and being not at all religious
i throw the pictures away

i never write to ask
for answers
and he never offers them

we’re all reasonable
creatures
here
