With donkeys or on...

You
A man drinking figo alone
You.
Who are you?
I just have...

JamesAround the corner
Of the unpaved driveway
Was a claustrophobic shack
The front door
Was once a cherry red
Like his father's 1968 Cadillac

Genie In a Gin BottleHer lips caress another cigarette
A fading belle looking for love
The smoke veils a creature of habit
Chasing a young girls dream
But this Genie found the palace doors locked
Her youth distilled into a bottle of gin

Just LegsI’m the cigarette you smoked
till you kicked the habit;
the Friday night you washed away
to observe the Sabbath.
The structure’s burning slow,
but the light’s fading fast.
The shape is still intact,
but it’s just a pile of ash.

the one that left
