This post was deleted from the creative board

from this poem



the wiz

call him sir and break his tin heart

just to pick a line at random
I make it a point to call the young cashier at the bank ma'am. She seems to appreciate that.



I try to remember it is just a poem
I remember saying in my thirties it is too late
My forties it is to late
My fifties
My sixties
I will probably be saying in my seventies next year.
When you are my age I will be dead
Hang in their Constantine
I want you to send me a post card from that Greek Island when you get there after you get that sheep skin.

Have you been getting any mailings from Depends adult continence products yet?

I watched a video of Bukowski he was saying the blondes with the tight pussies came too late for him. The woman sitting beside him said something then and Bukowski proceeded to kicking the shit out of her right on camera. The camera man did not intervene, did not try to stop him. I guess he was too hip or too scared of Bukowski.

Later I learned the woman was his wife. A very attractive woman indeed.

I know it is a hassle probably, but I used to like when you double posted your poems to creative and your artlog.

Then I could ramble on like an old fool on your artlog and nobody would notice because nobody reads those things anyway.

But I am grateful for mine. Cause hipness is somethng I have lost interest in. NO longer wish to prove I am hip to anyone.

But I wish I had your cools compadre. I go around with a mouth full of blood from biting my tongue.

Going to delete this soon as I know you have read it.

In fact I am going to delete and repost it to your art log if you don't mind

it's good to hear from you. i feel like the hypochondriac in hannah and her sisters. i'm 55 and think about mortality too much. i even think that me thinking about it is a sign of impending mortality. gotta to put that stuff ahead of me behind me. counter-productve.

[stilltrucking]

I don't know Constantine you are probably right.

I think about death a lot too. Lots of thoughts about death.
Almost as many as I have about sex.

I think about shit a lot too.
There are about three billion people that still shit on the ground.
I think that is probaly a good thing,
If all six billion of us were still squatting on the ground we might be up to our asses in shit.

I heard that in India there are special workers whose job is to remove the shit. They are so untouchable that their shadows are unclean to. Can't allow their shadows to touch you.

Let see what else has been on my mind, oh yeah, Cigarettes, think about them about every five minutes which leads to more thoughts about death.

I probably spend most of my day thinking about stuff that is counter productive. No wonder I have produced nothing with my life. Got any children? Are you leaving hostages to the future?

I think about children a lot too.

Which makes me think about women and how much clothes they need. Seems like the department stores are full of women's clothing.

I noticed that when I went to Macy's today to buy myself a little hand cranked radio flashlight for ten bucks, a special bargain. I was hoping that I would not have to trample anybody to death to get it but if need be I would have done what it took.

I liked the idea of having a little hand cranked radio because I have been thinking about the crash of of civiliation a lot lately too. So now I have my little hand cranked radio and flashlight I feel more secure.

I think about commas and semicolons too. Run on sentences and sentence fragments. I saw a how to book on Clean Well Lighted Sentences I been thinking about buying that too.

thanks for dropping by Constantine.

I have not seen that movie.

When you get to be my age
I will be in my eighties, if I am still here.

another deletion from the wiz,

Why are you asking me what I mean by older women?

It was Dino who brought up the subject of older women. Perhaps you should ask him.

Dino wrote

thanks clay. looks like i'll have to settle for older women!

What I was just thinking about was the Bukowski video on youtube. The one you were offended by. The one where he said the blondes with the tight pussies came too late for him. The one where he started kicking the shit out of his wife during the interview and no one did anything to help her they just kept on filming. How hip is that?

[Doreen Peri]

I was asking what anybody meant by "older women"

and what does "settle" mean anyway?

Odd that older men are making such statements.

LOL

my thoughts on death are brief. it's my belief that's because my life is long. i'm so far behind myself that it'll take years to catch up with me. no reason to die until i do catch up and make even the misbalance i've lived with in the freaky shadows for so long. life is such a goddam kick that i feel my face grinning and that makes me smile inside... i start chanting like a foreign voice from centuries later... and i don't understand that but it rocks me like a roman mick jagger singing no sympathy for the devil while my chanting keeps the rhythm in bootstrap time made for lovers under full moons painted lilac by gypsies in caravans by the seashore boiling crabs and toasting life with red wine from spain. yes. life is a kick on saturday nights.

sorry truck. but i had to spill it.

It is odd that you keep saying that in the plural.

I would feel better if you had said an older man making such statements .








What are you sorry about Cecil, I did not catch that part?





I been thinking about becoming a Catholic priest,
