leave my pussy alone = retart

evidently
the new neighbor
to the left and right
next door
to my computer room
doesn't know the routine -
tap tap tap on my window
instead
of ringin' the front
door bell
to get in
touch with
me

so i answered the doorbell
at the window
recognized
the person i
don't really
know...

her and her
young foreign husband
coupla small kids
moved in during a
snow blast
about
6 months ago

"is that your cat..." she points
"retart's his name"
"he comes in the yard plays with the kids"
"he struts the neighborhood...he likes kids...he's harmless"
"is he fixed"
"is this a survey about my pussy"
"he's spraying my bushes and
my yard smells
like skunk"

o how i love
new neighbors
-let me count the ways -
and the way
'newbies' try to take
over the long time establishment
and the day
they moved in
they backed their black
diesel duelly
into the side fence dent-
ing the main post
never said a word
i witnessed the entire scene
from 'my window' and
never said a word
plus
the lady across the street
complained to me that she complained to
her about her
dog pissing on their
'treated' lawn
well
guess what
it might be the only
yard in the neighborhood that
is
la~
deee~
DOH -

"well i can see
you haven't had much luck with
cats when cats
spray they smell like
cat sex not
stupid skunk
stupid"

"o"

"now leave
my pussy alone
...have a nice
day"
and
i closed
my doorwindow

 

all i want

so my dad is 76 as
of jan 1 2003
stricken with uncontrollable diabetis
sugar level
too high or too low and
he's zonked out
a coupla times already
kidney's failing and
his heart has help
via a pacemaker
still the
beat beats
irregularly and
he has difficulty
catching
a decent
breathe

i am one thousand miles
away
i don't get to see him often
he don't deserve this
agony
i want him around longer
he's the bestest and
i love him more than
my mom my mom
has medical problems also but
not as bad
yet
my younger sister
coldcallusbigboilfacemoneyhungrymonster who
lives in back of
them in
sunnyhothumidfireantbigbroncobuckingbugfest florida
seems to think
life and feelings no longer count
once you've
achieved that stage of age and
she don't give
a rats ass about
anything except
the after time

"we girls should get together
sell their house
set the money aside
in case of a medical
emergency...and when they're gone
all i want is everything
i ever gave them"

well i can't stop crying at
the thought and i thought
all i want is
for daddy to stick around
just a little longer
so i can visit - one more time and
another one more time
and then
when
they're gone
all i want is
everything
you
- bitch -
ever gave them
