corn flakes?

no doubt here

corn flakes?

never been a fan of dry cereal

rather a chorizo and eggs

kinda guy

yet

there is always someone 

just offstage lurking in the shadows

waiting to piss in my corn flakes

haven't had cable 

since i can't rather choose 

not

to remember

old school aerial antenna provides 

more than i need or want

yeah PBS

a dinosaur i may be

no cell phone

my land line is victim

to daily barrage of robo calls

most informing me

the IRS is on their way

to arrest me ... ok

internet yes

facebook no

no twitter no new car

or beach cottage vacation

optimum word here is

no

as in mortgage

or credit card(s) debt

everything i have

is broken or borrowed

so to speak

only new is tools

t shirts from the last century

a treasured collection of vinyl

starting with my first purchase

Walk Don't Run '64

the challenge to find parts

for my 47 year old truck

is time consuming

my garden brings joy

and nourishment to the table

tomatoes tomatoes tomatoes

blueberries blackberries

persimmons and figs

fresh honey on the menu

rabbits quail venison 

fish and chicken

fill my freezer

the excess is traded and shared

i see stars at night

listen to the symphony

provided free

by sometimes too many owls

grey fox deer black bear 

frequently use my yard as passage

to feeding grounds

elsewhere

most days all is good

until some a*****e decides to 

dismantle

disrupt 

completely destroy 

democracy 

and that just pisses me off
