"It's about words, and words are all I have…"

jew like me

there was one black family in

our hood     one

 

sister’s name was Kim  brother Duane  i was

totally in love with them   giant fros  scarecrow

thin   jittery laughs   behind whiteish palms

 

Duane’s bellbottoms  so wide  tributaries ran from

them  back to the garden  Kim’s undies  thrown out

a window   in Quebec City   where the n word echoed

 

as jewgirls  whose parents narrowly escaped ovens  grew hate

+retribution   where now Duane?  a Hendrix doppelgänger   or

do they all look alike?     do we?

 

hookish nose

+swarthy  with

$$ signs  for eyes
