PawnShop

A Poem by Judas Hammer
"

The extent a man will go.....

"

PawnShop

 

A man told me he had the keys

To Heaven.

I asked him where he got them.

He said- a pawnshop on Van Nuys Blvd

From An Armenian man with a lot of K’s and J’s

In his name.

I asked him if he had anymore?

He said-no

He had purchased the last set.

So, I beat the man and took his keys

Some people will do anything to enter paradise

Even hurt his brother

Creative, and cool. Has a moral in there too. Sounds like one of those parables or tales that people pass down. Like it's been around for ages. Well done.

Some people see
Bukowski and
Neruda and
Others WITH a Cap -
and even as gods...
and some see
...reflections.
