Alternative History #5
Adolf Hitler was a Beatnick,
A speed Freak,
hung out with
Ginsberg and Burroughs
and that whole poet crowd
shot an
arrow at a prickly pear
that was resting on
Señor Burroughs head,
‘Be still Mi Bello,’
he whispered,
he missed of course,
The arrow hit
Hemingway,
Who had come over for a visit,
Papa survived,
but lost his love for fishing
Old Men Buying Lottery Cards
They tend to get in
the way a lot,
I use body language
to try and hurry them along,
I need a banana and
some cough drops
for my six year old,
I need a Diet Dr. Pepper,
old men buying lottery cards
believe slow and steady
wins the
Powerball,
the Mega-Millions,
the Texas Two-Step,
at some point
while waiting,
I die of boredom
& look down on my
body from above,
I am still in line,
arms crossed,
while tapping one
foot,
the old men buying
Lottery cards
one step closer
to a shiny
new Ford Pick-up
