| "For the second time in my life, I'm guilty of committing a crime. Parole violation. Course, I doubt they're going to throw up any road blocks for that. Not for an old crook like me.
"I find I'm so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel. A free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope."

| this old goat is grown tired... and would rather stay home,
rather graze among sheep again... mostly alone,
tired from making insufferable cheese all the time
tired... relinquishing ground to the wolf and the swine.
the new goat might afford an old, reckless abandoned,
superlative, tethered, centrifugal tandem;
but decidedly, outwardly inward umbilical
does as worse, as the life of this part is ephemeral.
the ‘present projective’ seems hardly a tense
to be rehashing out with old, goat cheese recompense.
old and new, all the same, reinforce by some measure
why the barnyard must redefine business and pleasure.

in event of a conscience, it is after all mine
rebuffed or 'rebutted', unhinged or maligned
in regard to my weakness, i know it is strong
if there be any boasting to whose it belong.
if my life is a featherless fowl, slowly roasting
if this rhythm adventures abominable posting
let the skewer be every and any at once,
let the skeweree proctor and pay for his stunts,
a newfangled suspended kebab, if you like.
press 1 to defer, 2 fight or 3 flight.
press 4 to attempt to combine 2 and 3
or 1 twice if you happen to have a degree
please listen again as our options have changed
press 5 to complain or try keep them the same
press 6 if you signed to defend ways of life.
and 7 if life style entangled that price.
press 8 if your own motives now are not noble
and 9 if "lunch break" be the only thing hopeful.
