"To tell you the truth, I'm pretty burned out
on meat poetry or street poetry or poetry of
the down-and-out, whatever you want to call
it, because so much of it is bullshit; either bogus
motherfuckers who never shed blood but
insinuate themselves into the lives of those
who have and then make a name for themselves
by writing generic imitations, or a bunch of
middle-class kids still living at home talking
tough, aping Bukowski, Wantling, levy, Micheline...
but HAPPY HOUR is the real thing. Stark precision.
It's stripped down, bare bones authentic.
You be the real McCoy, amigo..."
-John Bennett

Midnight In Haditha

fading fast now in my bunk staring
at the ceiling
wiped clean and that ain't
dreams

I want my fucking country back

spliced with space and time
for you tonight
the world over always know your
target and what's
behind
it

my little good luck charm

kick in any door

that's easy for you to say

get down hands up and fully
cooperate I make mistakes all
the time the wet hair the blank eyes

call the number on your screen

my hero you're my hero
you're the one that I want
eliminating a threat engaging targets

full moon give us a call I want an
explanation

I lay eyes on someone with a weapon

a lot of good stuff the frosting on the
cake all the things that could go wrong
fade back into the shadows

in the distance muzzle flashes

now the eclipse
