an almost accidental gathering of poets

Naughty Boy
When he brings home a whale,
she laughs and says, thatīs not for real.

And if he won the Irish sweepstakes,
she would say, where were you last night?

Where are you now for that matter? Am
I always (she says) to be looking

at you? She says,
if I thought it would get any better I

would shoot you, you
nut, you. Then pats her hair

into place, and waits
for Uncle Jimīs deep-fired, all-fat, real gone

whale steaks.
