Not Now, I'm Busy
I stare at teacups
and blank walls
squeeze a ball
of bubble wrap
as if some kind
of juicy inspiration
might ooze
through my fingers
onto the keyboard
surrounded by books
none of which I read
start to finish
anymore, but graze
from a smorgasbord
dip into my favorite
playboy phrases
then toss them out
for the dogs to enjoy
secretly hoping
they will boomerang
back in the form
of something sexy
something hip
like a trilby or a kiss
