standing in Saint James is
(whatdoioweyouwhatdoioweyou)

drinking from thai
rubber souls
smoking from christian
missionaries
eating from tourist
trash cans,
he points at the court house
at the �hangin�� trees
and says
very softly
(�this is interesting�
whatdoioweyou?)

on a liquor store wall is dali�s
jesus
spread from the head
like an autopsied leaky�s baby
he giggles like a Happy Apple
he cradles his empty offering
and asks Him
(�whatdoioweyouwhatdoioweyou?�)

in the westgate safeway
he buys a moldy donut
and a quarter pony ride
he climbs on board
and spins round and round
as bullmen approach,
he says to them
(�whatdoioweyouwhatdoioweyou?�)

(he sprints then, with them close behind, and my remote feet lose them all)

in a dead leader�s gutter
he lays with a gash
he moans softly as i
catch up

i ask him if he wants a hit
i ask him if he wants a moped
i ask him if he wants a palm pilot
i ask him if he wants a chalupa
he frowns and says
(�do i owe
you?�)
