I live with A Demon
of My Own Creation
caged above Me
in My Living Room
He is black & dirty
with giant bird shit
dripping off the upper right corner
of His Chicken Wire Cage
first laid across Him
on the 4th Floor
of Cooper Union’s Foundation Building
where He came to Life
never to speak — only to glare
with His Brilliant Eyes
down upon His Audience —
Yet Today He Speaks!
Through Me as I speak out
for The Creature of My Fierce Fear —
My Fear of being locked in
or up
or out
as I have been locked inside
psychiatric wards
for years on end
I am OUT NOW
& I can speak My Mind
no matter how It comes out
I AM BLACK JESUS — but
not because I am dressed in black
I AM BLACK JESUS — because
I can speak
for My Desperate Crow — d
The West Desk Window NOON
I am naked as I write
just out of The Shower
after rowing 2,234 metres
on My Concept 2 Rower
— My Very Own C2 —
to write that I am thinking
of You
The http://www.livestream.com/occupynyc People
bundled in Your Coats & Blankets
against the odds
(though My Last Check Written
to Cooper was all evens)
I see You on Your Live Streaming
& offer My Support
from My Home
here on The Hawk
if there’s anything I could do for you —
now I’ll get dressed

Well Black Jesus is at It again
in front of Tim Horton’s
to a bevy of Young Females
smoking
She strides over to Them
& rhetorically asks:
“Hey Young Ladies —
What does It look like
smoking in front of Tim Horton’s?
— Think About It –”
“So do You have the right
to tell Us what to do —
Bitch?”

Boy am I glad I got
My Canadian Citizenship
— at first I thought
I had to relinquish My American
but I didn’t —
so I got My Canadian in 1995
I call My Self a Dual Citizen
Born American
Canadian By Choice
and as a Canadian, under
the provisions of the Citizen Act and,
as such, [am] entitled to all the rights
and privileges and [am] subject
to all the duties and responsibilities
of a Canadian Citizen
My Cat Astro
I Love So Much
hissed at Me today
when I manhandled Him
onto My Lap
I’ve never heard Him hiss before —
I will never treat Him
so brusquely again
–
I might get a tattoo
“PROLIFE”
on My Forehead —
of course I want The Cows to be happy
& The Rancher’s Mink to be beautiful
handled humanely
but We’ve got to have The Line
between Human
& Animal
