The other Guy / me 2.01
The other Guy
The new and improved
Me 2.01
Now a part of your
Real Reality
My counterpart
in this parallel universe
Who is perhaps
just now
sitting in your kitchen
Enjoying morning
coffee
Unaware of my pain
Noticing only -
The smile in your eyes
The curves of you
and a heart that
still beats
I check for my own

The Amulet
Before the Indians
became
Indians
before
Germany
had lost
the war
TWICE
lived a man
whose hands made in clay
this emblem
of his faith
To protect him
on his pilgrimage
or from
robbers
snakes
and ghosts
in general
I do not know

Braindead
It could have been me
There
On life support
Bruised
Broken
boned
Bedritten
Bandaged
&
Braind ead
Fractured skull leaking
Glassy eyes seeing
nothing
Darth Wader Breathing
Monotonously
Unreal
They tell me

Some Choose a Whisky Death.
Some choose a whisky death.
A taxpaying
coward’s death.
Slower
but with the same end
result
as tightening noose
or piercing bullet
or life
in general.
Some choose a whisky death.
While Death’s Icy Hand
raises frosty jug of
beer
they
burn bridges
and candles

Evolution
The firefly -
with the hermit crab
a close second
appears to me
as the
pinnacle of evolution
with man kind
stuck somewhere
between
hyena
and leech
And I wonder
when and how
it all happened
When these P.hd.’s
of science
and walking armors
sitting in the darkness
on a twig
above/ in

Sunday
To the sound of
cigarette smoke
and ice cubes
melting
sweet flavor of
thin air and time
deliberately
wasted
the sweet
caress of

The Tattoo
Wearing little
but pants
a grin and cigar
you laughed
out loud
your crazy grin.
Your arms covered
in scars
and
gang tattoos
from your
colorful past.
Still embedded in arm;
a bullet,
and in your head
the story
of how
and when
and why
Seeing you there

The Date
Fighting losing battle
against the urge
and for your time
up-hill and against the wind
to tonight's TV-program
your sister or mom
or this.
As your calm
Transatlantic -voice
telling me your
'…with your date'
numbs me with
fears
I honestly thought
had died with us
I realize
Its been months

The Night I Thought I'd Lost you
Don’t
remember
when, but
where, I do.
Nor the

why, but
on what,
I know
too.
That
distant
Copenhagen
Mushroom
Night
I thought
I’d lost you.
My eyes

The Nun
She was black.
A salvation army nun,
and I was just me,
though richer than
usual,
waiting
for my connection
to take me to heaven
to my version of God.
She asked and I gave.
“You are a good man”
she told me.
“God will not forget you.”
“God is dead.” I replied.'
“..and you don’t need
