Little Green Men


I swear I spotted Gumby
eating al fresco at
Cliff’s Dive Bar & Grill

Last I knew he was
packed inside a box
in transit from Columbus
to Cedar Rapids

Upon retelling my story
I was rudely informed
what I probably saw
was an alien figment
of my own imagination

on the art of listening


I’ve been told people
are really starting to listen
but I don’t buy it
not in a new york minute
in fact las vegas odds have it
those who actually practice the art
are ten times more likely
to be listening
to irrefutable gibberish
