Oh Happy Day

On finding the web site
everettemaddox.org
back on line today


All these words
of mine--
count them up like
fumbling blunt coins
& crumpled bar dollars
at the sketchy store,
jonesing for cigarettes--
what are they worth?

If I could write just
one goddamn line
as good as his worst,
I'd quit.
