Death On Broadway: Three Seattle Poghems

Death On Broadway: Three Seattle Poghems

Hello Menthol readers,

Below are three short poghems inspired by my recent week-long jaunt to Seattle. They should tide y’all over until I get the rest of my film processed

+++

1. “Brand Loyalty”

I am end

lessly pleased

with PhotoShopAfterEffectsInDesign

the consistency

of the products with each

of my intentions and each

other.

Adobe should

diversify and

make ColognePastaStreetDrugs.

Have you

tried the new

CS6?

I put on some CS6

went to a club, did some CS6

met someone, fell in love,

we went back to my place,

ate some CS6

and lived creatively ever after

in a suite.

2. “SeaTac”

Two men behind me

are speaking African French

I join in: Vous venez d’ou, where

do you come from?

A young woman

turns at my French

tells me: You

should do that more often.

I am fairly

sure she is beautiful and very

sure she is wrong.

3. “Gear”

Everyone is moving in

with everyone else

he moves so often he

is hard to find or

to avoid.

If he asks me why I

pay for dental work in cash I will

say “because of global

warming” if he asks me why I

didn’t write a check I will

say “because I had to

drive” if he asks me if

i am growing my hair out I will

say “yes would you like

to have a race?”
