at the ivanhoe pub

john alan douglas


sleazy westcoast bar
misnamed, no honor
or chivalry there

en route from sweaty pool tables
to vomitose men𔄞s can
next to unspeakable
women𔄞s can

see lisette sitting there
with politically correct
cronie

“I thought about you today𔄠
lisette admits as the pinched
face of her cronie implodes

folds right back into itself
in mean spirited disapproval
and shock

and lisette then my ex-wife
ex-love of life then asks
me to sit down there

in sleazy scummy westcoast bar
amid growing hate and fear
from her friends as they

come to the table one by one
to witness first PC hand
th einvincible power

of love and devotion and love
over fear hate gang-mentality
and sleazy westcoast dust
