I.

we weren’t looking for Kevin Bacon,
weren’t trying to find a way--
it was just ten steps
                              to no one in particular.

II.

                 looking for damn connections,
                 screw chaos theory.
                 I’m gonna find me some sense.

III.

less than three percent of potential
muggers or
                   rapists are willing to commit murder
if you are in a situation where you feel that such a person
committing such a crime on you is possible

turn around
make eye contact

put them in the situation where they’d have to kill you
to get away with it

most will just walk away

and if they don’t, then you were fucked anyway

IV.

      thanks,
                     Dad,

V.

Mom has empty nest syndrome
so she bought a bird.

A parakeet, to be more exact,
a small lime green parakeet that she chats with
    over coffee
    reading the newspaper
    singing and dancing her disco times when no one else is home

she calls him Fibonacci
[Fibby or Fibster for short]
and she sings him the sequence
so he will know the way

but I call him Fibs

VI.

        yeah, I gotcha
   shaddup, don’ worry ‘bout it
             naw, man, I’m sfine
          yesh, I can walk ‘ome-myself
      ssssssssssssstoppit, I’m sfine

  naw, dude, naw
        I’m caaaaaaaaaalllllllllling you on yer-lies

VII.

Hey, man, don’t be startin’ something you can’t finish, you know what I’m sayin’?
Naw, dude, I’m serious.
Back up offa me.
What, you think we’re playin’?

This ain’t no game show.
