Because of three sixes
Are you an idiotYes.


he bit his tonguehe curbed the avalanche of Ya superstitiousya stupid led by your noseya led by yer pussy(occasionally their cock) Ya buy into that crap buy into the dictates of advertising
                                                                   Huh
felt like his head was going to blowup




but when he wasnt around work he came on gangbusters  perhaps a bit too strongperhaps guided by latent insults he was required to endure
                         sometimes he caught his tongue stepped back looked them in the face and say Give me a moment woudja  I just wanna knock off the clock so Im not workingnot an employee just an everyday common Joe
Then youre welcome to repeat what you just said
Yagoodwiddat


nothing inebriated him quicker than stupidity
not even a water glass filled with gin
up side
        he didnt suffer a hangover afterwards maybe a split lip  but he gave as good as he got
though usually his irritation not to suffer yahoos kept pushing him until it shoved him out the door before punches were thrown

he tried hard to exit
                     anybody who was that stupid stood a good chance their whole head was made of bone and hed hurt his hands  

he apologised elliptically I didnt mean to hurt your feelings  I didnt realise you had any


once upon a time he placed such lugs on a plane with planarianflatworms then he read that even theysimple animals had nociceptive receptor systems to steer them away from damaging situations
if they didnt veer he certainly wasnt backing down


nursing a black eye someone asked  Howd that happen?

hed say

theyd say  Boy, that’s stupid!



his point exactly

redux 26 October 2016


growing up in Chicago how couldnt a disaffected teenage paperboy not find hero-worship for SDSs Tom Hayden Freedom Rider Port Huron statementer  howl and cheer his part in the Chicago 8 standing against the Machines Boss Mayor Daley sitting(bound gagged and chained) shameful Judge Julius(Caesar) Hoffman and defended by the reeling razorsharp attorney William Kunstler(he wanted a Cunstler)
                                               how couldnt a disaffected teenager recognise Bobby Seales courtroom plight recognise then the validity of the Black Panther Party for Self Defence created after Malcolm Xs assassination and then understand all the more keenly appreciate that these black Oakland California men celebrated Womanism and associated with Whoa! Whos that? Angela Y. Davis her afro jacked him her intellect jacked him and years and years later she remained the only black woman he ever formed a crush on (what pinned his crush was his unmitigated relish that she was apprehended by (suspect J Edgars) FBI in a New York City Howard Johnsons Motor Lodge -- Friday Nights All-You-Can-Eat fried clams baby -- manna)  


in 2015 at a conference on Vietnam Haydens keynote remarks cited that there must be a persistent struggle for memory and for history they were living things on-going and did not end

his words caused him pause 

curiously the day before Hayden died he wriote a piece where he declared that he didnt spell America A-M-E-R-I-C-A but A-M-N-E-S-I-A



so despite his agonising his bitching his teen-angst of having to live in Chicago itching to begone

he did keep his eyes open

he was vigilant
            OH the things he saw the things he remembered keenly 

things that some people to-day are trying to rewrite


it made him wonder who the anonymous person was hed hand off to
