A tugboat on the deep deep sea

A tugboat on the deep deep sea

 

She did not call me for a

Coffee cup although I told her

I was Pablo Picasso Jr. and gave her my tortuous to write

Artist’s

Statement but I was not deranged about my 119th

Love more like lust failure for she

Wore ridiculous high

Heeled platform $72 a pair foot gear like a

Stallion in a horse shoe.  Fish fish fish I

Would continue to fish like

Hemingway’s sentimental old man who

Harpooned a whale.
