Greyory Blake
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE MADE THE SHOT
OF COURSE HE MADE THE SHOT
THE CHILDREN OF NEW YORK CITY
ARE THE ONES THAT CARRY
SPECKLED BOUNCING BALLS TO THROW
AT ANY PASSING CAR
THAT HONKS ITS HORN
TWO TALL MEN
BUMP SHOULDERS
ON A SPIRAL STAIRCASE
AFTER YOU TELL IT ON THE DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW,
YOU REALIZE THAT AN ANECDOTE IS ONLY “CHARMING”
THE FIRST TIME YOU TELL IT
