Two Poems by Russell Jaffe

 

MONEY, GUNS, & LAWYERS

 

Raffa faffa falassa with an ear

For handled bliss,

 

Diamond sea gone emerald?

Ha HA

Jaded kiss.

 

The shirt’s wrinkly and wrunkly!

Shirt’s alcappy dunky!

 

Parry the torch?

Ha HA,

Yore the gorch.

 

To reep would be rollie.

To sleep would be folly.

 

O-wa Tahgoo?

Ha HA

Rattle the goo.

 

Agrochemical, quensu nemichal

Comin from St. ‘Lou?

 

Ha HA!

Rent the room

 

Rapsidaisical

Septiclopital

 

Easy on the range?

Ha HA

Soak the change.

PLAIN CHEESE POCHKISS

Other foods in remedies,
Brisket, haunch, and husk;

Other dangers verily
From crotch to root to dusk.

I would blame the other guy.

He’d blame the other, too.

 

He would blame another

Who would turn the blame on you.

 

A made place, an object space! Urine on the floor,
A temple guard!

 

Another

Speech of pills! O, what a bore!

Supping debt, sweet credit check,

snow a pine might breath; climbing, climbing, climbing,

Climbing, climbing the blue rungs of death.
