Sonnet — A Fiction

It's clear from my college journals I'll never be

In the bar the salesmen sit on their lonely

Is poetry liminal? Frank wrote his best poems

How did the orange juice make me so mad — again?

Driving South From Garibaldi

Repost: Number Eleven

Take an infinite and then add one,

Monday was business as usual, drawing up the nitrates

The summer I turned pretty except the trout laughed

Every poet deserves a quarter-mile gravel drive

I love that Che wrote poetry in Havana,

As a young man I was nowhere needed to be.

The church I ran to as a boy was small

Fathers of America, go get that vasectomy!

In liver gravy Bloom mashed mashed potatoes is

Taking a Break

Two sonnets, artificial

College

Little Sister | X.P. Callahan

The year he sailed away to Avalon

At dawn they set me ashore then turn to stone

We left the brew-pub swelled & flatulent,

Facing the traffic, I saw it die alone

The Gin and Juice of Austin

Bury me in a shanty of notes that follow me down.

Here is the house where two virginities easily lay

The ground was Errant made

Eighty-second avenue, the stingier side

Pipedream | The Orange Line, Portland, Oregon

Searching am I, and apparent divine,

To the Anonymous Collector Who Paid $10,000 For A Pelvic X-Ray of Marilyn Monroe | X.P. Callahan

Are you just a typical dude who loves barbecue sauce?

Let's the good guise, somma ship of virtu sink,

Apologia | X.P. Callahan
