Sonnet: The Mad Sassafras Sinecure

giggles and google a gaggle of geese
honkeys flying in a north passage breeze
.
What the mighty whitey gonna do when
the androids come and strip him of his zen?

He gonna snake, be all dance floor wooden?
.

Haven't thought about the VA in years:
the sexy nurses they hired brought me tears.

Chow Hall, still recall fights over jello;
they would squeeze each other blind, and bellow.
.
O, Nurse Agnes was a moveable feast.
My thinking, beast; o my god, all beast.
