Back to a Warehouse
MARK SONNENFELD
The boss’ bird
hand-picked the special-order bolts
of fabric
with a hi-lo
His name slips me
but he was dark-skinned tall and slender from the islands
and wore bright pants collared shirts
and caused no trouble, No
the one to watch for was
john s. ' & ' some writing
appeared on the mens room wall
about this old italian guy tony who
worked there And somehow rumors spread And
I tried to explain as tony
all fiery-eyed
A piece of wood in
hand chasing me yelling me
he’s gonna kill me! ' & ' john s.
By the two stanleys
The feller with the glass-eye
all by the scale watching all
LAFFING LAFFING LAFFING
at my bad day no better
A week before
Morning break I got
a cheese pastry off the
lunch wagon And
bit into Yep the baker’s missing
band-aid
