WHAT IT IS? SOMEBODY TELL ME...


CLAWS? WIFE & TWO BAMBINOS?
by
Richard Joseph Stephan · Tuesday, September 25, 2018
-------------------------------------------------------
Was it something I said? Maybe it was something that I did to you? Did it hurt? She dines
It’s like there’s nothing more important than getting some food to eat, like it’ll kill me to go
I like to stalk and play with the game before the suppertime, my shebang of cattery of felines
Got to hunt for the mate, she awaits the return with the game of her choice, oh baby buffalo.

Mothers don’t want their young eaten just because there was no self defense, so mothers kill
Kill the predator and leave it for the buzzards and jackals who love to pick at the dead stuff
Miracle is that there is anything alive left on Earth at all, the voracious appetite to eat itself
God and Jesus, Buddha and Krishna care less about Zen Oneness than I, they’re all D E A D.

But I’m still here and now giving the low down on the down low with the boys and girls in bed
Places we’re born, on ground floors of hospitals’ O.R. or in a cave in a Sp/Fr/English sinkhole
On the West side of the Pacific or Atlantic waters, men and women reproduce little Cisco kids
Poncho and Diego met down at the border, WAR began at holy Rio Grande, outlaws gotta go.

In time, this too shall pass beyond the mud, the blood and the beer in your gullet, set to bust
It is as it always was and always will be, with or without me here and now, we’re all gonna die
I’m here to say that, it was my job, my life’s only reason for allowing my being in the sawdust
Less than perfect at bit or two, yet I am the only game on the page, a black cat paw’s on a fly.

Playing it again for Sam won’t do any good, Sam’s got to jam on the 88’s until the cows come
The light’s just past the total darkness embedded deep in my soul, my spirit, my mind’s numb
I slid into home, head first, hit the bottom, it turned out to be the top, yo, what’s it all about?
Nowhere else to go where I am not, I am all of this everywhere, I’m blinkin’ lights, I am Out.

DIRTY DOGS AND A GENTLEMAN
Richard Joseph Stephan·Sunday, September 23, 2018
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
You or I can talk our heads off until the cows come home, it won’t do any good
There is no place for heroes and no place for thieves to move from the city hood
Stayin’ within and putting up with the ‘tough’ guys who want to get a piece of you
You know they can’t unless it’s an ambush, so you just never know for real, I do.

Hair on the back of my neck stands up and pricks the cotton of my collar, I’m alert
For the millionth time, thugs don’t want to admit their proclivity to a weeping tyke
So, they give you the business as if you care about anything except cease and desist
Knuckles, fisticuffs or martial art magic, you do what needs to be done in the psyche.

Dreams and reality crush into the colonies and cause the states of the union & #Starwars
Prehistoric before the #Word and post-historic language diversification, gave us the cars
We drive to and fro in a panic or at leisure, colliding with other things not stoppin’ on dimes
Even dirty dogs get hit running across the road toward your head’s lights and chrome rims.

Slick hair parted down the middle of the road, widow’s peak split in two, Vaseline double-do
No wind and no quick hand could move the set coiffure, set until drenched with lye and soap
If the well has gone dry, you need to use the toilet’s water to rinse your scalp’s irritation rap
Sky ain’t cryin’ no more but you will be when canines lick-up the funk that follows, oh crap.
