with a half empty bottle
one drink to remind him
of the good times
fifty to dwell upon the bad
i write
with a child’s hands
misspelled odes
and sloppy cartoon hearts
destined to malfunction
they will be
remembered forever
i am only as good
as the next orgasm
and cab fare home
as their words take root
in the adoring minds
mine peek through
the cracks on the
broken slide to hell

thanks Harley. Barry was a fraud like me, he never even wrote the songs.

You are far from a fraud my friend.
Are you telling me he didn’t write Copacabana? That’s it. I have to stay home from work. Too devastated.

Zimbabwe. We had just hunted a man-eater. As per custom we offered the beast to Barry as we did the ceremonial Copacabana dance around the fire. Bob, the guide, googled it. Never been back to Africa. To much hurt. Too many lies.

Thank you, Harley. It’s okay to cry. That’s what learned. It’s okay.
