Go Ahead & Wear Your Nicest Panties to the Prom!
But stay out of Real Estate.
How you bragged about
purloining sixty thousand
in one month with just two flips.
& now you have rebellious tenants
& funereal properties & hectoring
banks, & hafta sell your car. We’re
laughing & it’s tinged with sadness,
not. When you strike rock bottom,
we’ll buck you up with a nice tea,
the drink of amateurs.

Power Shoes
-Completely lousy timing! Madame’s voice shook and that’s a killer.
Her statement suffered.
-Well what do you expect me...?
-Fire ‘im!
-I’m not gonna fire every marginal faggot who talks about her shoes.
-But it‘s the last thing she heard before going in front of the cameras!
-Accident! She OVERheard. Nothing directed to her. Whisper!
-Look! you little sonofabitch! What’s hard to understand here?
Unless YOU wish to be fired!
-Well first, you little sonofabitch, what gives you the power...? If you look
at the table of organization I should be firing you, you you sonofabitch!
-Boys boys boys! Can a lady inject herself into this imaginative argument?
Let me take the responsibility of speaking to all our young men and women,
and telling them that comments about Madame’s couture are out of bounds.
-Well that won’t establish who’s in charge of anything around here!
-I thought Madame was. Or is it just my inner woman speaking?
-This whole place is inner woman!
-Suits you perfectly!
-Listen to Mr Lisp there!
-Boys! Now you don’t want me to bring your darkly masculine hissy tiff
to Madame, do you? Let her just worry about the World, no?

Abu Ghraib
-I can’t get ahold of those tapes featuring rapes of boys.
-And you never will.

The Inconvenience
-Not my first call and won’t be my last!
-I’m sure of it. And I know the subject I bet.
-Twenty minutes waiting for a little family group
to amble across! Time is fuckin money! Due at airport
and Lear all fueled up. What you think that cost me?
-Those animals protected by Feds. Endangered.
-They’ll be endangered when I get through all right!
-We offered to build a fence along that route and you
and other no-tax hooligans fought it like hell.
Then bragged about your victory in a full-page ad.
-So you wouldn’t forget it! No pool at new high school
either. Y only fifteen miles.
-Well, no critter remedy here anymore. Would you care
to shout anyway? Or buy another ad touting Power
to the People!–so long as they’re rich.
---
-That obnoxious little prick. We made him and
he began forgetting the very first hour in office!
-Out here in the wild, we don’t even take notice.
-If I hired you to kill them...?
-Uh uh. No federal pen for me!
-Well what do you...?
-Relocating. I’ll trap and bring ‘em up here.
-How much?
-Fifty thousand.
-Uh huh? That’s to start talking.
-Not up here. That’s it.
-That the only arrow in your quiver then?
-Poison.
-How much for that?
-Ten.
-Dangerous! I mean can it be traced?
-Know a certain good ole boy. Be something can be claimed
it’s from camp sites. Okay for us but toxic to our little friends.
-I’m still worried the whole business’ll come back here,
to me.
-Twenty years maybe. Who’ll give a shit by then?
-Go!

Night & Day
Saving Cole Porter’s house
as B&B, & museum.
In the roaring traffic’s boom,
the stately clock against the wall...
silence of such lonely rooms. Well,
hail to thee, Peru, Indiana. Despite
your lack of roaring traffic & tom-
toms under falling jungle shadows. With
a bow to the other Modernism, had been meth
lab. From Art to Commerce and back in free-
ly spastic America. Take heart though:
Can put Meth Museum anywhere.

No Pass, Timids
Madison was shy, short, very soft-spoken, slight.
Shrimp inconsequential proving an intellectual
and political giant. Never was easy I’d guess.
So, step it up! You’re required. Open your placid
mouth. Because you owe us. When
baton is handed off, you can grab as well as anyone.
Better! Why not today? We await, and don’t care if you
stumble. Or stutter. Or mumble. Or fear.
We’ll lean forward to hear!

Waitress
-Okay, girls! Check’s about a hundred. What’s ten percent? Lorna?
You’re our math whiz.
-Four dollars.
-I’ll leave five. And without a vote. So, executive decision benefits waitress!

-Mac! Can you help me out again? I just had a table tied up an hour
and they left a lousy fin!
-Republican ladies was it?
-What’s the difference? I’m screwed under both parties.
-Give in and marry me and I’ll buy...what am I buying?
-Special baby formula pediatrician insists on.
-I’ll buy that! C’mon give in!
-Yeah. Eventually.
-It’s fate.
-Ain’t it?

Getting Together
JUSTICE
Listen! We go in there in a few minutes. Now with A, they’ll try to ram through
the politics. We can afford to meet them halfway. It’s weak law anyway.
With B it’s more like fogbound law. Nobody has ever figured that freakin
thing out. Judges are push-pull. At any rate, we’ll let Administration have all
of B or more. It’s Theater of the Absurd.
Now C we gotta stand up for. No choice! Or we have no raison d’etre. When all is said and done, we must finally fulfill our duty for Justice. What the country believes in. What history sanctions.
Back seat for politics there. Way way back! Future depending on us.
...........
ADMINISTRATION
Gentlemen! We can zip through all of this tout suite! We gotta have A to
fuck the opposition, simple as that. They’ve taken to trying to fuck us,
so they gotta learn. Such balls!
JUSTICE
We can’t go all the way on that one. Sorry.
ADMINISTRATION
That’s what the Vegas whores say, until you whip it out. American Express
that is! But don’t worry about A. We’ll consult with you right after we act.
JUSTICE
Somewhat reasonable. But that’s last deal we can make.
ADMINISTRATION
Except we need elbow room on B. Some very fine points we...
JUSTICE
You can have all of B.
ADMINISTRATION
You grow in stature by the minute. We want C too. Unfortunately.
JUSTICE
No way there. Settled law of the land. We can’t lose all honor on that one!
You’ll hafta back completely off! Completely! There is a Trust from our
ancestors, even back to Magna Carta! Let alone The Constitution.
Supreme Court’ll hand you your head!
ADMINISTRATION
Hey, one more appointment there, it’s Golden Asshole.
JUSTICE
That’s where you’re wrong. No matter the appointee. The historical glory of this nation...!
ADMINISTRATION
You see a podium here? Platform? This is a no-speech zone. I have Senators in here and I shut them up too.
JUSTICE
I know we all hafta play ball with one hand, but with the other...!
ADMINISTRATION
You can jerk off. You’re fired! Now get the fuck out, to put it politely.
JUSTICE
I can go to the press!
ADMINISTRATION
You won’t go anywhere. Why the fuck you think we picked you in the first place?

The Desire For Clever Underwear
-It’s just a fun thing! A pair of panties for every day with the day written across
the bottom in script.
-I get the fun; flagged the expense.
-The blue noses’ll rule the world yet!
-I phoned the store and they’ll bill you at home.
-I can’t have anything like that coming to my HOME!
-Then just drop by and pay in cold cash.
-Man! This is much ado about practically nothing. You know, I could throw my weight around and you’d be out on your ass!
-Funny how someone says a thing that’s already in your head in a sort of turnaround way...what do they call that?
-Sorry. I’m passionate.
-Evidently.

Thoughts At a Film
HE
Wow! This dude can’t walk to the car without someone opening up with an
AK-47! Man, I’m sweating. Whew! Oh no! Female lieutenant saying bent little things to him. RELATIONSHIP ALERT! RELATIONSHIP ALERT! They’ll wor-KKKK it out as the action strangles in the background. Jesus H. Christ on a bicycle! Love! LUVVVVV! Kiss MY ass! Now she shakes her little butt, thus ruining an exciting movie. They got, like, gears of menace grinding, g-RINDING, and they empty a carton of high heels on ‘em. Where can I puke?
SHE
Thank God we’ve finally left the Juvenile Home. Real people in a real relationship.
What life is about. Not shooting them before their cars can explode!
*AFTERWARD*
HE
Nice film. And they’re gonna get married! How really clever they worked all that stuff out while getting the bad guy too. Eventually. Yes, ups and downs in the
gritty male-female world. So completely exciting. And totally unpredictable.
Totally!
SHE
You looked uncomfortable when they were handling grown-up matters.
HE
Me? Not at all! (under) Sorta yearned to be stretched on the rack is all.
