how nasty life is!
and how even worse people are!
how i wish i were an anchovy
in a can on the shelf of an abandoned supermarket
or even better
on a pizza half-eaten
and tossed aside in its cardboard box
on a sidewalk in the rain
a million cab drivers weep
dreaming of neanderthal maidens
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches
