p0sthuman: the evening before p.42

back from Bali

back from Bali we make our own
shadow show… out of the

flickering my silhouette
cowboy in slo mo rides

his dangling head a comet
that trails slight light…

your bar girl cleans the saloon,
slops from a pail then steps in it…

her feet splash my matinee
idol, his

number’s up he trembles,
draws erect and pulls on a cigar…

off the smoky coast
beacons slide into dark

you’ve had enoughv and reach for the remote

I catch your sticks…
keep jiggling
