Cynthia:

Your father's here

Me:

Cool, I'm sick today
My nose and eyes are icky!
Ask him if he saw the Diego
Castillo fight? Wow, that was,
the best fight ever. Last night, in
acting class, we did a 'group' mother's
day exercise and I collapsed in
tears, terror and despair
the entire class cried...
then, I left early, bought a six
pack and raced home to watch
two full grown men kick
the living shit out of one
another for an hour...
Ahhh... America.

P.s. Tell my dad, I like father's days better
Always have --because, I only have to focus
my hate on one ass-hat, instead of 4...


(bad Latin accent) just kidding!!!
I have to barf now, see ya.

    "The Greek"

    I might throw-up or box the guy if I had the chance! I'll bet money that the dogs are always chasing his horse.

          I see... I'm going to go break bread then wind. The thirst is in me. I have a door to sand, a mirror to left hand and spuna to can.

    Horus,
    It appears that cynthias father never was there so she is attentive to the bad that goes on rather than the good. I like the sarcasm.

    jeremi,

    i think i told you before that all poetry is somewhat universal. i believe i said that it just takes the right one to touch someone, to find their truth. This one does that for me, again.
    I think that is the appeal of your work for so many. You have more outlets, more takes on life, you reach into the nooks and crannys better than so many on life's little nitches and find so many universals.
    This is a very good write. It's good because it reads real. It doesn't spar with itself over good guy, bad guy. You don't paint yourself perfect. It just is what it is.
    Hope you're doing ok.

    Perhaps rikki it's that you're so rebel, and young, you
    just quite haven't worked that part of your brain yet?
    Give it some time, it'll come to you, a couple more fritos, pop
    open a pepsi one and go text message someone
    comeback and you'll have figure it out.

    I didn't really understand. What I kinda got out of it was that you have four mothers. Is that right, or am I just totally lost?

    Funny and twisted.

    This sounds sort of like a real personal problem as they say. But then it is better than some of the emails I get but it was an funny in a twisted way email thing.
