A Beat Poet’s Story



Wednesday

November’s favorite color is grey.
I know because he told me so
when we were
discussing
January’s aberrant behavior
and he just sort of slipped it in there.
I got uncomfortable,
and left.

Tim Hortin’s

Five filthy cigarette butts
floating in a medium mocha chino
Dunkin Donuts cup.
Two cream, one sugar,
shoulda got a large.
