good to the last drop! – talking that smack
(a haiku sequence)
1/
they thrilling as bland
bowls of cream-a-wheat next to
your sweet jellyroll
2/
they salty cracker
crumbs you be a moist loaf of
cinnamon raison
3/
gave up drinking for
lent yet stays drunk sippin’ your
pepper pot liquor
4/
all them other girls
was soup, but see you, you is
some filé gumbo
