Poem Book - James Foley
Faunna
Sitting in a coffee shop on Clark Street
Looking at the sexy ladies
Walking in the place
Nothing more to do but lurk
Every book I hold is crinkled or wrinkled
Thirsting knowledge seeking who I want to be
I read in the whirlpool in the sauna
I’m in the steam room with a crinkled book
Looking for Faunna
At the restaurant friends all around
As Dexter goes by on his skateboard
Yelling in front of the medical clinic Help! Help!
A man on his bike rolls by kitchen on wheels
He is keeping a positive flow
When I was young
I hung around junkyards at old Irving railroad tracks
Drinking blast beer we stole from the train cars
At the age of twelve
My friend played guitar
I made up a blues song
About old Miss Mary
Always having wicked fantasies
Silver night baby she’s coming down the tracks
21,000 Volts
Zap, I’m gone. I only hear a song
I tried to sing, but it wouldn’t come out
I slipped out of my body, I was zapped
My friends looked worried but I was happy somehow
I touched a few people but they didn’t even know
I was still there
I touched things in people, but there was no reaction
Ghost hands withered on the piano in the room
The reflection of his past was all around
Friends talking to his mother didn’t even know he was there
They were scared
Candles were lit, the room dreary with cobwebs
The gargoyles were conspirators, echoing voices of the past
The black cat was eating the spider in the web
The mouse was caught in a trap, squeaking, "Ee, ee, ee,
