Buddy Bee Anthony Poems

It ain't a movie
And it's not a joke
Your account's been frozen,
And now you're broke
...

If someday
they'd address me
With an 'E'
after the Sir, that's Sire.
...

Please don't sell me Soul Train
how your express stopped runnin'
Please don't sell me Soul Train
how it used to come
...

Is it particularly cruel or unkind

to admit I possess a larcenous mind
...

Challenge
old Morris Belmont on his avenue
He'll throw a fit
Fire up the coals have
...

Babe, you
knocked the stuffing
out my teddy bears
threw soapy water over my baseball cards
...

I often drink until I hit the floor.
God bless my favorite all night liquor store.
Of course, I'll sober up when I'm asleep
So, I may then start counting drunken sheep.
...

You're entitlement allows you
to say or do anything you please.
because you're special.
Laws and ethical standards
...

I know people
who
help me through the night.
And, I know people
...

Our drinking water's tainted.
There's flash floodin' in our streets
Doin' shaky, shimmy, shuffles
scrounging for something good to eat
...
