🍌 bananas
by Ken Kakareka
i don’t
want to
bring up
his name
again
but
bukowski
warned me
that you
could lose
everything
writing.
i know
what
he meant
now
that i’ve
lost
a good
friend
who thinks
i used
a fictional
description
of him
in a book
to benefit
myself.
a flattering
description
nonetheless.
bananas!
it’s what
you get
for peeling
off
the layers.
