ulysses tx

what poverty such nerve what taste

highbrow & lowborn were erased.

greed led us 2 bursting of guts

from bk lounge & pizza hutz.

we once in youth fasted as monk

our lashes cinched & corneas shrunk.

this world appeared as passing sweeter

without trips 2 the bottomfeeder.

stick people & bad livers shared

the bill w/punxx drunk & longhaired.

when record stores still lined the drag

homeless dudes puppy tails did wag

enticing tosses of spare dimes

inseminating future rhymes.

who knew that age would fade from us

quick as the last i.f. schoolbus.
