non obligatory made it back to that familiar coffee shop god only knows how poem

   THIS DOG
THE MAN OCCUPYING THESE EYES
HAVE TO STARE AT EACH OTHER
B/C ONLY THEY COULD UNDERSTAND
THE JOURNEY THAT BROUGHT
THEM HERE
WITH AWE

& BEWILDERMENT

OUR BACKS WERE TO THE ROPES OF THE DESERT

STEERING WHEEL COMING OFF OUR TIME MACHINE.

BACK

TO THIS COFFEE SHOP

WHERE HE WAS LOST

BEFORE EVER LEAVING.

EVERYONE LOOKS

CLOSER TO DEATH

EXCEPT THE UNRECOGNIZEABLE

PEOPLE

ONLY GLANCE AT THE MIRROR

TO KEEP THE JIG GOING

WHERE IS TIM KELLY?
AND WILL THE BUFFALO BILLS WIN TODAY?
THE GIRL ON THE LAMB
WHO ROMANTICISZED CROSSING

THE COUNTRY BY BUS

FELL IN LOVE ON THE WAY TO SEE HER BOYFRIEND

WHAT WILL HER BOOK BE ABOUT?

HOPE IT CAPTURES THE STENCH & NEVERENDING TIME WARP OF THE GREYHOUND BUS.

WILL THIS HEART

FIND PEACE BEYOND THIS MIND?

AND WHAT DID THAT COYWOLF WITH 3 GOOD LEGS
THAT MYSTERIOUSLY PASSED US IN PORTLAND MEAN,

IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF NOTHINGNESS?
