TOO FAR
WE HAVE COME TOO FAR TO TURN AROUND
Dark clouds cruise the CN tower Power mongers skitter
at Queen + Bay It was 40 yrs. ago today English Professor
Barry James 49 (so perhaps dead?) said: Ms. Atkins you
are likely too young to fully comprehend the concept of being
trapped in a life not of one’s own making of what it means to
be a prisoner of fate
But now I do Luckily ensuing decades saw many Houdinis
Beelines to: a hotel (2nd almost husband 3 a.m.) the airport
(same bloke) parent’s spare room (don’t ask) Once even a
segue to a brother’s attic where lonely+Rapunzel I waited
Now a new course of study + Professor beckon He is young
enough to be a son so I suspect he has yet to figure out the
dirty truth about Mcfate
I will not give it up to him No matter how hard he begs during
office hours Unless it is on bended knee: Pretty please leather
skinned redhead He a Lolita scholar where Mcfate waits in the
person of Humbert Humbert The pervert + pedophile The good
news is that once the whips+scorns of time have had their way –
there is medical marijuana!
If you are still alive Barry James + reading this poem I hope you are
on some This +numerous prescription drugs whose side effects are
identical to the disease Now buoyant with false hope unique to the
new THC you will care not a whit about the members of the animal +
vegetable kingdoms inhabiting the White House of 2018 Nor that
democracy as we know it is being swept out to sea
