Poetry from The Seat

how long must I sit here
before everything comes out
on a throne of porcelain
i explore my doubts
life's little mysteries seem to arise
i flush the one that I despise
my thoughts wander, I know not where they lead
all because I forgot to bring something to read

(Fall 88, LSU)

RE: ROTC

I've been in ROTC for a semester and a half and I fear I will always be a civilian in camouflage.

If God had meant for leather to shine, He wouldn't have put hair on a cow's ass.

Waiting for the bus

Waiting for the bus today, I felt a little twitch
And looking down upon my arm to ponder on this itch
I saw a little red wasp a sitting on my cuff
He wanted nothing but to rest his wings
But I saw his stinger, so I thumped him off

(Fall 1989, LSU Bus Stop)

I like art

I like Venus de Milo 'cause she can't slap me when I'm rude
And Mona Lisa, she just smiles when I'm crude
While Aphrodite, on her seashell being born never disapproves

I like Art 'cause Art don't talk back

(1990?)
