Poem #6
Urban Battle Ax
By James Bezerra
That ax you have is very shiny.
And heavy.
And bloody.
But maybe
you shouldn’t have brought it on the subway.
It makes you look a little crazy.
And loony.
And violence-y.
Perhaps maybe
you should put it away.
Then we can go to dinner.
Or the theater.
Or your therapist.

Complicated Rhyme Scheme about a Girl on the Bus
By James Bezerra
The sunlight in her skin
&
the ash in her eyes
&
the craving in your gut.
It makes you think of sin,
makes you think of her thighs
but
you stop, your fingertips not
quite
touching her
just lingering in the air.
You can’t touch her here,
but you want to touch her there.
but you don’t want the fight
that will start if you’re caught.

Poem #2
Party in the Bathroom
By James Bezerra
The handicap stall
is like a VIP room,
but with fewer celebrities
and more shit on the wall.
For a good time call:
858-525-3950
and you can come to my parties
in the handicap stall.
Or do you think it’s a bad idea
to party in the bathroom?

Poem #1
Trivet
By James Bezerra
Why a trivet?
On your wedding registry?
I used to clean the kitchen
after you cooked our dinner.
Big messes
but
small dry chicken.
You never used a
spoon rest
a sponge
a Brawny paper towel
or a trivet.
You couldn’t make
a cake, a cookie or a casserole.
Just chewy chicken.
But there it is-
the trivet-
right between the his & her towels
and the ice cream maker.
Maybe he cooks for you,
right before he listens to you
and gets along with your friends.
Maybe you were right,
maybe I never did those things right,
but I’m not going to
spend my money
on your god damn trivet!
