For Hunter, in the Greatest Country in the World
Taking one of those
big coconut scythes
to your rock and
chipping out dimples
til it’s a Titleist
& smoking that.
Weeding your father’s
hair with pruning shears or
vacuum scissors with
a tooth gap
Slurping gin from
soup kitchen ladles,
burping on the floor,
meet-cute on the floor,
imagining Ukrainian burgers
Withdrawing but the
Rite Aids went under so
there goes Western Union,
I know where your head’s at:
start a painting practice
Bugging me for
glassware or napkins
every 20 minutes
Downloading the Fleet Foxes
DLC for GTA V strip club,
we did the same
in college, me
and mine
& Holding Degas’ girl
real close, half your
age and gentle, breathing
that purple mountain air,
feeling up that majesty
us Delaware boys know
