Robbing Peter to Pay Poetry

 



Days spent working for money
The artist is a thief of time
Who plots to capture
Moments needed
To hear the UFO podcast
Robbing Peter to pay poetry
Fake bathroom breaks
At the copy shop
To read Kenneth Patchen
And Ferlinghetti
No time to conjure the para-poetic
From the UFO podcast
Just write it down
Exactly as it plays:
"It's hard to get your head around
The amount of money and man hours
That went into driving Paul Bennewitz insane."
