driving a truck thru canarsie

driving a truck thru canarsie ...
*
owls without vowels --
or --
owls with no vowels --
you decide.
*
ott6.
*
call me when you're 20, honey.
*
half nude,
all lewd,
but not rude
or even crude.
*
kids don't learn how to hate. they can do that well enough by themselves. but they do learn what or who to hate.
*
the man was a true nell. he'd rather be tossed into a briar patch than be touched by a woman.
*
more justice
more peace
*
the lovers kissed in a room so quiet that they could feel their lips smacking. but the sound was light because they kissed in tenderness.
*
in his voice was a tinge of sarcasm, like an ounce of whiskey in a pint of water ...
*
the house was full of the smell of bacon greased mixed with odors from bad plumbing. it also was overheated in the winter and other cool weather.
*
lots and lots of psychologizing ...
*

but AE, UO ME.
*

*
said the native american to the black man: "we were both fucked by the white man. he stole you from your land; he stole my land from me."
*
going down a roller coaster, you feel joy with a touch of fear: that it'll be over much too soon.
*
wondering why
these days
it's all secrecy
and no privacy --
paraphrased from the song fingerprint file, the last song of the record it's only rock and roll by the rolling stones.
