A Strawberry in Los Angeles
by Joseph Goosey

They’ll find me clutching an unloaded automatic under the pier. I’ll be eating a blueberry muffin and spitting sugar onto the mussels. I saw more than enough nature anyway after being horse-drug through the trails of unconscionable denial. Somebody in British Columbia burns in a malfunctioning tub. A strawberry in Los Angeles inadvertently is tossed into the disposal. Someday soon I’d like to get inside of you and hang out until the helicopters scream overhead and the doors are brought down by those who’ve never even skimmed the collected works of anyone.
