I catch myself choking on the bones of my desires
and idiot writer trying to swallow dinosaur bones.
It might do the world justice that I choke right now
Deep the in secret recesses of my mind
I am not shocked that I find this appealing
for I have lurked in these dark shadows for too long.
I have tried to ring out a life just under fifty years
and there have been few pluses for this old aardvark
of a man who can not wring out an ant from under
these old logs of life rotting under the sun.
