Suicide, Day Games in Dank Dive Bars, Erections on the Fringe
I could write a sex poem in a New York minute
Literally a minute or less
Titalation for the newbies
Tired old verse for the veterans
who might have something better to do
I'm waiting for my masterpiece
I thought my last one about his suicide
was an icebreaker into the swamp
Wasn't sexy enough
Too much truth for traction
I'm from here, I know why he killed himself
He couldn't top his last great erection
Down hill, the struggle he loved so much
No challenge, They loved everything
Even though he was calling it in, nobody cares, just ratings
Cynical and waiting
The humidity is creeping up
Summer in NYC
Looking for a day game in a dank dive bar
I could never kill myself, I'm too selfish
Postscript: Reading this again a day later after writing it.
I'm full of shit
I have no idea why he ended his life
My theory is probably garbage
I've had Bronchitis for the past week, got New drugs yesterday afternoon. Crawling back to myself for better or worse .....

Author's Note
We claimed Bourdain as our own, it wasn't a shock, startled me though
We 60 + fucks who still look good in a t-shirt, you think that would be enough to stay
Tony didn't think so .....

I am deeply saddened I had a real love for the man
I'm grateful you're too selfish dearest Poet
I have true love for you..
if you weren't here i'd be questioning what's real in this world..
love you..
Brenda

It's hard to stay in the game sometimes especially when everyone's wants to be you and you want to kill yourself. That's a mind fuck sister ....

I don't know why you love me Brenda
Often, I'm gratified but confused
Everyone wants answers so they can wrap it up in a tidy package and figure out where to go for lunch ....

I love you because you are gruff, ornery, yet real tender and vulnerable where and when it counts..
I love that you tell things as they are..
I love that you've shown me lots of love over the years..
you've been someone I can count on.

I am gruff and ornery, some would say too much
It's not that I'm so high and mighty
When I get Pissed Off at my own weakness, I take everyone to task around me too ..... 🤐, smiley fucking face with stitches
There was a message to you in the first couple of lines, I appreciate the response. You inspired me to write this poem, though it went from me to Bourdain in in the edit process.
Love is a necessary quotient, I'm all in when I can

Yeah, those ratings clearly show the lowest common denominator. Works like Pavlov's dog...
I just had to google Boudain....I don't own a TeeVee you know. Seems like not only did he get cought in the ratings, he also seemed to take quite an interest in subjects of the darker kind. I don't mean to postulate this as the truth, but there is a chance someone felt intruded upon. Some elements don't take that lightly....but what the hell do I know.

I sometimes write TV as teevee too
I worked in that world for over 25 years. On the perimeter of the slime but not quite Bronchial yellow or green ....
He was a dark dude, those who really loved him probably get this ....

He always seemed like a real dude. Like you could sit and chat with him without feeling unheard. It wasn't all about the food and fame, I don't think. Damn shame he had enough. We need more decent folk.

I'm probably totally wrong and who would want to be right about such a heinous act ?

I've enough monsters creeping through the shadows in my mind, I'm not gonna try to crawl inside someone else's head. I've never understood suicide but maybe I've been "lucky." Who knows what another thinks/feels? He seemed like a deep thinker. Maybe he went too deep.

He was a bad boy who made good. I understand he had beautiful manners and was kind. It's a great loss to those who loved him and for the rest of us whom he entertained.
