"Quatorzain for the Little Brown Guy" ~ 2015 11 16

the little brown guy was neither little
nor brown nor even really just some guy
some guy who could fix your leaky faucet
who could teach you how to parallel park
who could post bail when you’re in the drunk tank
who could dispose of the body you killed
some guy you don’t introduce to mother
the little brown guy was not just some guy
some guy who would drive you to the airport
who would loan you 10K without interest
who would smother your mother for your debts
who would cut off your ears to prove a point
some guy your father wouldn’t approve of
the little brown guy was just not this guy
