straight from the oven
freshly baked loaves of sourdough
wanting some butter
scarcer than a mother lode
gold for investment and bling

rain, rain, rain, rain, rain
flash flood warnings on the air
wall-to-walk water
place for a paper fortilla
like my boats in the gutter

in my man's cave
there's portriats of great jazz men
Duke watches over me
escorted by the Modern Jazz Quartet
Picasso's three musicans

many pregnant touches
I went timidly dreaming
before empty riches

awake in the bed
tramaled by leaping sheep
where is the shovel

sleep would not come
sheep refused to jump over the fence
wool is dear this year

the trenches were full of blood
we were getting short of bullets
there were so many bodies
from exploding bombs
there would be some empty billets
and some missing beaus
who would write letters about missing beaus
and sent home their things covered in blood
no one wanted to use their billets
we needed more bullets
there was no safety from the bombs
we kept tripping over the bodies
there were not enough bags for all the bodies
each bag carried a beau
killed by savage bombs
each body left a lot of blood
there were gaping wounds from bullets
there would be empty billets
no one used the empty billets
they were shaped for missing bodies
the bodies somewhere lost full of bullets
a missing generation of beaus
who gave up their blood
in a rain of bombs
equal opportunity killers were the bombs
seeking to make empty billets
leaving buckets of blood
by destroying many bodies
among them someones beau
who may have managed to escape the bullets
the foxholes offered little cover from the bullets
or the bombs
the bombs destroy everything including beaus
they seeked the location of the billets
that would no longer hold bodies
that warm them with blood
bodies fill of bullets no longer needed billets
the bombs torn apart so many bodies
beaus added to the pool of blood
