anyway,

Lord, these 2 guys,

come downtown looking for a late spot to have a drink

for coffee, for action,

for colourful talk,

maybe Queen Street West some little bar or bar salon

or a drive east out by the Beaches

but some place

where they may have a little food in the kitchen

& sometimes

on certain nights, they have music. Good.

DID KEITH JARRETT EVER RECORD

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?”

The Skinhead & his girlfriend who wears 2

pairs of leggings are shopping for vegetables.

I have no idea what this means do they put soy & mustard

on their fingers & lick it off like cats at least broccoli

tastes but you have to let the soy soak into it

while it’s steaming in a pool of juice beside the brown

rice. Clinton says over & over that we have to discover

customers in Mexico

Mexico, Jesus,

in order

to get back

the money that has been displaced because big companies

like Sansui

so who owns Sansui I own a 4-channel Pioneer

have been shipping enormous contracts out of America

& giving it to Mexican workers

who do it for 8 dollars a day. Why do I have to be

involved in these questions? Obviously

the northern bourgeoisie are shifting their assets. I have a B.A.

but my best job so far was a warehouse clerk. Now I’m unemployed

for the winter. A huge series of chemical tank cars

blew up in Mississauga last night. We were asleep. Sandy’s

black silk stockings tossed casually over the back of a straight

backed maple chair. One of our few pieces of furniture we have

cushions

on the floor a classic frying pan, & the new Keith Jarrett

tape

At the Deer Head Inn recorded live at his old bar in the Pocono

mountains

in Pennsylvania. Clear sound. There is no loose money

floating around. The big companies take care of themselves

like big cats. The Skinhead & his girlfriend are shopping for

vegetables.

There is probably no loose money floating around in Pennsylvania

either.

I have a package of frozen fish sticks & 4 tins of Heinz

spaghetti. I have no idea why she wears

2 pairs of leggings & she has a large ring in her left nostril.

There are

no jobs, the streets are full of garbage

it’s hot & drivers speed up at the last second before the light.
