Poem for Tuesday, October 13, 2009


Another Goddamn Charlie Daniels Band Song

Tonight I saw
for the first time ever
a black man slide a
fiver through a jukebox and
pick seven Charlie Daniels Band
songs. I mean
damn.
Rocking out to "The Devil Went Down
to Georgia" like he had a
tattoo of the Confederate flag on
his left ass cheek.
Mike and I pondered this as
we downed a couple of
pitchers and sucked some cancer
sticks, and then we danced 'neath
a disco ball on a white diamond to
Girl Talk at midnight. He's a true
            fucking friend.
