7 junio 2008: Flashbacks

i went mad
after vietnam
war casualty
never left home

at the fillmore
i was wearing
my purple robe

the acidheads
stared and genuflected
called me jesus

everything is the same

going mad
from iraq
swimming in the lies

at the grocery store tonight
buying ramen to support
my unemployed son

a black woman
said i was jesus

she was young
churchgoer obviously

a subtle evangelism

good news

but look what happened to him
