lunatic tile underneath a formica god.
he cracks at the edges.
synthetic delirium..
coptic nerve....
in his head plastic can be holy
.in his head
he bends but never breaks
Memories
of Formica
kitchens
And 2-burner
Hotpoint
stoves
Lipstick on
a menthol
butt
Costume
pearls
in rows
Perfume
from the
five and dime
Drive In’s
on the
field
A promise
made
a promise kept
And
love
— that time can’t steal
(Listening To Patsy Cline: July 4th, 2025)
Tiny diner in the middle of nothing
Gravel parking lot empty of cars
Screen door bangs as we step through
Formica tables polished until gleaming
Bobby socked waitresses giggling
Homemade biscuits and eggs served runny
Total due just $2.65 after breakfast for two
Return in a week finding dusty windows
Empty diner closed since 1964
On his table of Formica,
A once ardent Christian Micah
Drops reggae from Jamaica;
Newly, Peter Tosh’s great liker
No more Soulless Demons’ Striker:
Paul in Thessalonica…
For ten years in America,
Eyes on the female Hitch hiker,
Mid-course rides turning her liker!
Have you been to Madagascar?
I’d had to and lasted The Scar…”
The First, we’ve heard, shall be The Last:
In his own case, a truth, too fast…
Micah for Marley’s Jamaica.
