earth note 645


white street pier, key west, christmas, government shutdown

the bocce ball courts are empty today
but i still hear the old men growling
even if they've decided
to sleep in late today

"those somnabitches are talking about
cutting social security & medicare again
...bastards...
they should stick their silver spoons
right up their privileged asses"

i guess this bocce ball court
will be our line in the sand
if that's what it comes to

merry christmas
