Read Poem/CommentST. JULIAN STREET
(’08) ST. JULIAN STREET is right in the middle of skid row,
in Los Angeles, one or two blocks from Wall St., where I once
resided, back in ’58) – This is one of my collaborative poems,
where I take a few lines from a famous poet’s work & add a
few words of mine & voilá! Sometimes it works, sometimes…
(the lines with the asterisk are Rumi’s>)

* In every corner
* there are drunkards,
* arm in arm,
discussing important matters…
…preference of bottle shape,,,
alcohol content,
drunk-tank ratings…
where to take a leak…
Dante-approved
hell on Earth.

Read Poem/CommentONENESS
(’08) I don’t have a single book of poetry to
my name… some people write for fame and have
12 books; I’m too lazy! (I do have 1,200+ in the blog.)
My cure for writer’s bloc is to borrow a line
or two from a famous writer & and mix them with something
of mine. This time I took three lines
from a Rumi poem, each one is marked at its beginning
with an asterisk*

asterisks are hers, the rest are mine.
