The Three-Day Spree Somewhere Somehow Someday Poem by RIC BASTASA

Three days is well planned

but the execution turns out a little bit odd

on the first day i had Hawaiian pizza and Greek salad and tomato soup

and the night goes smooth like a tequila

the second day gives me a bitter tongue

nothing sour everything bitter nothing for sugar

the night has become a horror

air con is full but the body still heats up like a turbine

electrifying yet nothing about light and breeze

the following morning i pack up

takes the boat and despite the storm still heads for

home

still you, still you, i surrender,

i am this toothless tiger for your extinction
