((( GEHENNAS OF WRETCHED SQUAWL by Leif Haven)))

A FEW OF THE GEHENNAS: FICTIVE VERSION

In the summer once on acid
We went out on a walk all
The way up to midtown
You kept saying you were
Seeing things but I had
To tell you that you weren’t
And I was but I wasn’t
Until we stopped to play
Pool and have a beer
And I kept getting all
The colors mixed up
Later you had loud sex
In the room next door
And I stared at the
Layer of dirty water
That hovered just
Beneath the ceiling.
