Therapy
I wasn’t scared
just slightly out of it
plus these bloody marys
don’t do anything for me
all day
Later in the evening
reaching for a needle
I sometimes wonder
if Mister Doctor
knows I’ve always
told him the truth
I hear the economy
in Mendocino County
is doing just fine
in my mind
I am already there
tending my own garden
april, two thousand twelve
