SATURDAY NIGHT PING PONG...1972 - 1974

ping pong in grade six...



my opponents fall like flies...



i strike like a baboon...



there is shit all over the wall .

BEING JUDGEMENTAL...1966-1970

we grew up on a diet of THE BANANA SPLITS and THE MONKEES...



their attempt to make STUPID into an art form...



was right up there...



with sending men to the moon .  

BATMAN...1967-1970

...i wanted a BATMAN t-shirt



...with a picture of BATMAN on it



...maybe sucking off THE JOKER



...or bowling , or something .

THE ANGEL...MAY 1979

...an angel flew into my bedroom...



turned on some music...



offered me a smoke...



then said...BE GOOD AND DON'T BE STUPID .

LEMARCHANT...1972 - 1974

...my grade five teacher



...told me and the other kids to square dance



...''dance , you miserable fuckers'' , she said



...as the clock moved like a chicken above the door .

second year poetry...1981 -1982

this fellow i know...



thinks that walt whitmen sucks...



i once saw walt whitmen's tits...



not that that has anything to do with it .

tobogganing in grade 12...

it was a snowy day in geography class...



but the roof kept most of it out...



we met at the hill to do our best james dean...



if my dog new , she would be be jealous .
