Image for the poem Grim Cheroot

Grim Cheroot

Chewing the stub of stogie
with a falling of the ashes
while the dark is peeling
the flesh of burley
beneath the gaslight bulb
listening to the breathing
fawning the dawning
with my grim cheroot
of night's tambourine
with two fingers of redeye
and headaches by the jar
chewing the stub of stogie
 
Written by adagio
