BOOKS AND COWBOYS

published in ALLIGATOR STEW

I read the first 40 pages of many bad books.
come into my room and see these books
Lying around my bed
discarded
like dirty tissues

I cant stand these books
Just like I cant stand women
Who
try so hard
To look fashionable
And
sophisticated.
They do not realize
how hard
i got to concentrate
how much imagination
it takes
to strip away all that
clothing
and imagine them
wearing
nothing
but
a pair
of cowboy boots
and eating a greasy slice
of pizza
