in the whole world

a poached egg and corned beef hash, 1 piece toast,

2 cups of tea

Jung, Williams, shells, stones,

2 slugs rum, depression, rest of joint,

cigarette, 7 up, and it’s only 10 o’clock

Because I wanted to write a poem

Because I want something to come out of me

A rack of clothes, as if it were a clothes

to all of a sudden move again.

2 cigarrillos, medio porro,

un huevo escalfado y carne en conserva, una tostada.

Jung, Williams, conchas, piedras,

2 tragos de ron, depresión, el resto del porro,

cigarrillo, 7 up, y sólo son las 10
