NUYORICAN POET’S CAFÉ

 

 

Sitting in the Nuyorican Poet’s Café and popping down a Heineken.  All that is poetry has fallen from me.  I am void of depth or feeling.  I can do no wrong or right.  I am an abyss of silent delusion.  Overheard poets speaking and dancing around subjective interpretation of experience.  Feeling a trifle tired and losing interest.  Got to get back up and get on with the whole damn thing.

 

Poets still rapping

but loss of passion welling

hopelessly I cling

to delusions of glory

final poetic triumph
