THE ROAD TO LOS ANGELES

Folder: 
AMERICAN ZEN KOANS

 

The road to Los Angeles

has been quite 

a trip;

the Mexican restaurants;

the palm trees

& the 18 year old hookers

in the bus depot.

 

I’m glad I’m only 

stopping over

to catch another bus

to San Diego.

 

I couldn’t deal

with this town

86 dollar fine

for jaywalking

but hey, my bus

departs in 20 minutes.

 

I’ll be on it

Unless I get stabbed—

 

I’m not holding my breath.

The Reflections

Of an outsider. Books/covers? May have had a few decent folks there. Maybe? Another in yr face write. A raw dog read. - :D s;c
