These black pants are for bookin' gigs, booking gigs' black pants

201. November 21, 2010 (sun.)

Smudging the date books
Networking with match sticks
Circumference of thighs, Sigh

Hipster negligee, jeggings nudity
if i can call them Jodphurs, i'll comply
(Life is just easier as a skirt)




(bonus random web prompt/bitty contest poem, from Carl Sandberg's poem title)

In a back alley

A street lamp sputters copper
Nails flicker, thumbs silvering up the joint
Give this clown one last light

Distant jowls of police, siren intermittent
Blue bursts of drowning seal, Please
A side of Strychnine

Rats harmonize rusty, a lackey
Banjolele 'bandoned fourth string
A couple of wise slides, these guys'

Well-timed flights down fire escape--
Tighten your chloroform'd formal tie
You were never going to be anything
But a suit droog to this back door
