the evolution of content
becomes the idyllic
translation of serial killers

the irony and juxtaposition
of madness

sold as culture and community

...

and how poetry doesn't rhyme
as the post modern intent
of

dis-illusion-ment

I don't understand the poem... sorry, I'm trying.

I met the guy who played Beaver on the TV show. He was working at the Varsity Grill in College Park, Maryland, as a bartender when I went to college at the U of Md in the early '70s. Not kidding. Nice guy. Draft beers were only 50¢. He gave me a free one once.

Jeepers Doreen, I don't care if Larry and Whitey call you a creepy girl, I think you're just swell.

Well, in the '50s they certainly tried to get it "more back to normal," that's for sure.

"Ignore that Brutal Era of Pervasive, Unending Global Death and Destruction (for a good cause, of course) that we just stepped into." Ignore that shit! And just settle down to breed. Things will take care of themselves.

ah, kids that watched Leave it to Beaver, become Cheerios cereal killers?

I told my friend my cat was a serial killer. He replied, "Nonsense! Cat's don't like cereal."

Cats got too much style.

i like the=poem- but i am in a june cleaver space where i want my towels to match and the kitchen to be groovy- i drink alot of coffee and wipe everything clean- i have heard men say that thier women chased them with a sponge for years-
watching burn notice- fiona with all her weapons

there came a time when june cleaver was all of a sudden like wow, shes a babe for me, on the repeats in th 90's, me in my 40's...kinda blew my mind.....i heard about that jerry mathers impersonator at the varsity grill back in '72 but when i met the real baever in berkely in 73 he said that guy was bullshit.....eddie haskell did become a cop and lumpy died a rich man a few years back.....ward bit the dust in 82 along with all his knowingness, and June, oh beautiful June, i dont know, havent seen her since she was in that masterpiece of a movie called Airplane....leave it to beaver was my favorite show as a kid, along with route 66....

Well, he had me fooled. He looked just like him. He said he was on a summer break from going to college at Berkley. Oh well... guess if you say it wasn't him, it wasn't him. I was young and dumb and I swear, he looked just like Jerry Mathers. Same age, same face, same voice. Hah!
