depraved drug kingpin
dealing rearview mirror school
Honeybun Croslin

full life by eighteen
babysitting at seventeen
stepmom eighteen

months in between lies
missing murder haleigh drugs
lying to police

did i mention lies
DISNEY marriage and divorce
every single day

undercover cop
buyer riding in your car
off to jail you go

twenty five years
honey buns braiding hair missing
lying to cops

can’t wait for the day
you are charged with murder
feel it in your bones

Radioactive

“On the prison bus
breathing in the chemicals
feel it in your bones”

“mean i’ve had a rough
day at work but i don’t get
to go to Disney”
.
Nancy Grace CNN 10/5/09
–

she had a rough year
misplacing a child from bed
fed alligators

lied hourly
sold drugs to undercover
bought sold AND swallowed

having now twenty five
years to learn the difference
between come and came

if i had a nickel
every time you said i come home
billionaire
–
interrupting
this haiku with nancy grace
radioactive song .

thirsty bluebird swim with me

blackbird on dish
giving a piece of his mind
sounds like morse code.
`
bluebird lands on rope
takes six sips of chlorine
i say nooo each time

you have a shower
sprinklers puddles and spicket
why must you do this.
`
I’m a little Blackbird looking for a Bluebird

“Never had no happiness
no fun caress all over
east to west ”

” Blue as anyone
can be clouds all i ever
see sun forsakes ”

`

postliminary
bluebird sipping cement pond
can’t be the same one

born to be alive
his fat head under each time
he’s hard of tasting

same satellite dish
you are the same silly bird
loves radiation.
`
Radioactive

” the apocalypse
oh i’m radioactive
feel it in my bones ”
