"I found this pamphlet in the bushes
while unlocking the building this morning
and it reminded me of today's gospel."
Do not forget the nasaly, British accent, of my friend Danny.
We have a phrase for this -
"Calling it in."
If you haven't spent at least a little time thinking about
how to connect all this birth
and life
and death
and vomit
that I live with every day,
is there any reason for you to wonder why I don't listen to you?
Yes, my phone is
in point of fact
providing me with more answers.
"With the gospel in one hand
and the newspaper in the other."
Repeated by Barth,
ad nauseum advise
received since the 20's,
In the birth of narrative journalism.
Not only
does my life not happen in the newspaper;
when it does
I don't need your platitudes.
I need you to stop hitting me with
handbags and hatred
for trying to pee in safety.
