What’s other than money?

Havent heard singing for ones supper 

No.

he was asking this time Really

Yes really.

Couldn't say I'm familiar.

Really he was more than a little discouragedmiffed by the failing alacrity with which he asked Really

No Your parents dismay me

Don’t let 'em, never knew ‘em, I’m an orphan.

why didnt he know thabeen workin as a labourer beside him three months 

                                                                        Orphanage orphan  

   I don’t know of any other. Chicago, many moons ago. 

                                                            Product of too, too many foster homes. Like the tallest scooped ice cream cone yaever laid eyes on. Nobody wanted to buy the goods.

I apologise I didnt know

Not usually something I’m forthcoming with, but you said parents.

                                                                      Not everyone grows up like you did. I think the same. Meeting another orphan shocks me. Sometimes I thinkbelieve . . I’m the only onewish . I was the only one.

With Dobbs my kind is about to flourish.

I hope the state governments are financially up to the task. They can’t point their fingers elsewhere, can they?

De Niro  Travis Taxi Driver 

                               stands before a fulllength mirror  You . . youah . you talkin’ to me? 

he isnt talking to himselfhis reflection

looking over his reflected right shoulder hes talking to me

You we made eyecontact  you talkin’ to me?

   No 

Im not even in the room

                         my reflection evaporatessteams away Travis turns to particlesmotes vanishes without a trace

in my head sticks and stones I shake my head  it sounds like a childs rattle 

                                                                                    I hadnt said sticks and stonesNo

I said to no onenot myself 

                            I didnt say   I dreamed it thin stick

thin stick branches

it came on like that the beginning of a phrase written in a neat handlegible on the back of my eyelids  white chalk black board 

        thin stick branches brittle capillaries help respiring loaves of leaflungs 

photosynthesis 

                 carbon dioxide water suns energy  become sugar

in return exhales oxygen 

does not participate in zero-sum relationships 

thin stick branches brittle capillaries help respiring loaves of leaflungs 

                                                                           nicely printed

over and over again like a child at school being punished for something Write it on the board fifty times

how many times did he stay afterschool writing something on the board fifty timeshe was incorrigible  a hunredtimes 

once she was marriedMrs Keever  maybe her husband was away on a business trip twohunredfifty times  accurate punctuation spelling 

he snuck in errors

she caught them

                  he had no idea how many times he wrote the sentence one would think hed remember it he didnt get home until after darkmissed dinner

                                      his father asked wryly  How was school today, son? he was being rhetorical  You missed a tasty dinner. The dishes are waiting for you. 

he washed dried put everything away then went upstairs to his bedroom sat at his desk and did his homework

   the printing ceased  the lines were virtually exact same size letterspacing end on end line after line after line

he was impressed

it wasnt his handwriting 

he woke 

           wrote it down so he wouldnt forget
