here
i am
the
wandering man
my
second novel
“carefree
highway”
is
with my publisher
(coming
soon to a bargain rack near you)
this
may be my last entry
for
my sequel to
the
dark streets of decay
i
have nothing left to say
divorce
papers filed
child
support payments
will
be made monthly
automatically
and
i’ve hit the road
clothes
on my back
walking
shoes
four
packs of smokes
fresh
lighter
wallet
with license and debit card
backpack
packed with nuts and beef jerky
two
bottles of whiskey
some
redbull cans
a
few beers
(any
other addictions i forgot?)
and
some cottenelles
for
my ass
paid
my rent for several months
gave
my cat to the elderly lady
down
the hall
i’ll
be back
but
tonight i’m in the desert
probably
somewhere the law forbids
a
tiny fire and whiskey
fight
off the cold of night
maybe
i’ll send entries
from
coffee shops along the way
maybe
i
forgot to mention
among
my list
of
present possessions
my
memories
of
los angeles
and
her
and
her
and
her
and
…
no
agenda now
just
more walking
in
places i haven’t
walked
before
shit
it’s
starting to rain
