Curb Job
When he died
His mother put together
A ‘Book of Memories’
And asked me
If I wanted to write
‘A little something’ for it
Write about what?
All of the piles of dope
We did together?
And how he used to let me
Bang his girlfriend?
Or how he went to his grave
Owing me $500?
‘I’d be honored’
I told her
I’ll do anything
To put the screws
To a dead man
And brush up
On my fiction
