it is like the sickness of vanity:
each of my stirring is wired in
a storm, with the hot throb of
sins and drips of morphine, I
find there is never a right time
or candid reason for contempt,
so I drink the bottom-shelf wine,
smoke the smooth of Winston
cigarettes, caress the lithe form
of a French doxy, then slide into
the warmth of darkness’ embrace,
until sunrise crawls up the stairs
of my heavy eyes, while the two
tricks of bottom edges of nostalgia
lay naked and damp, one breathes
sounds, the other, struggles to rise
