For Patti Smith

Patti,
          you had two raw steaks in your pocket
I
have a plastic card with a metal strip
and mounting anxiety

The bickering loved drunks behind me
know more about your days of trench coating
than I could fill these pages with.

all my clothes have holes
but that could be from the conditions of flying
     jumping from lily pad to lily pad
always
seeking
she's here
now gone

wanting you in my vein
if i could shoot up patti
I would easily become an addict

illegally downloading her entire repertoire
before hot-tailing it outta there once again

it's bout as close as we get
