        jagoff 

its been awhile since hed been called a jagoffas a matter of fact its been years like since he left the old neighbourhoodhis old friends 

                                he wondered if it wasnt a nameword like groovy or Right on, bro or Mary Jane thai-sticks You’re a real douchebag  confined to the era he was raised in or the region 

                                                                                his kid brotherstill living in the old neighbourhood thought it was a Midwest or Eastern slur 

he was living in the West 

hed have to ask someone

or call someone jagoff 

see what that got him 

it wasnt beyond him 

hed chalk it up to curiosity 

Where

           In a bar 

Lubricated

In a bar? his brother worried  Oh no I wouldn’t do that if I were you.

You said it was a Midwest slur

I don’t know if I’d risk a punch in the mouth. 

Or just a dumb look on their face   What did you say?   I said jagoff   What’s that?   Its all in the delivery If Im not glaring if I have a humoured expression a pleasant expression on my face Coud think it was a pleasant saying a nickname

You think?

I wont know until I tryits worth a try . .

. . If yawanna get punched in the face.

he shook his head 

                     Yacant be optimistic  its not like I called em a cunt cunt round here gets guys and gals all riledlike wha  your breath smells like ya got a mouth full of shit  Not tha tha woud rile me

No. That wouldn’t rile you.

                              You’re pretty unrileable. 

I like tha  Coud I borrow it

Help yourself.

Im unrileable

You are . . . until you’re notthen the gloves are off.

Thas true

I’d think a temperature change from cool as ice to hot as magma would be injurious.

   Unrileable  Injurious   You don look that smart

I keep my cards close.

Thasaid Ive seen you on more than one occasion a freak  ice to magma . . 

. . Not often. 

    No  Volcanoes tend to be thaway

You think a volcano?

I do

he puzzled it crowded his countenance 

                                            You know what I think? 

I do

You do?

I do

What? Ya a fuckin’ mind reader?

   No

So then? he shrugged his shoulders like a boxer

Yave beento the best of my knowledge volcanic  when Ive provoked it whether me provoking you or me throwing down in a fight because I knew youd have my back 

                                                   You became feral 

his brothers eyes began to shine

he went off in his head a short while 

when he returned  his eyes shining brighter 

                                                Yaknowwha?   You’re right. 

I am 

You’re a jagoff.
