NO

dead bodies
resulting from
the celebration

This Might Be A Poem ... Consider Yourself Warned

________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 
This 
might be a poem
or 
it might not
 
It's all I got
(cold or hot)
 
Is that a crime?
When it's got rhyme
 
Nothing more
to write
 
Nothing more
to fudge

Hooda Helami's Tribute To ... ALBERT CAMUS

________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 

 
He 
gave us
The Stranger
+
The Myth of Sisyphus
+
something about
The Plague
 
BUT
—best of all—
he gave us
The Fall
 
He 
said some things
that were
not very kind
but
that happens 
when
you've got
a superior
mind

Rest In Peace, David Hockney

THANK YOU
for allowing
two
"complete strangers"
to 
swim in 
your 
South Hampton 
pool
many years ago 
 
We both swam naked
but it was cool:
 
The strangers
were
a 
trucker's assistant
[Bronx-born me]
and
Eddie "Bruiser" Robinson
from 
Bedford Stuyvesant
 
We delivered 
a 
heart-shaped 
king-sized bed
 
While 
the strangers
swam,
no one else
was in the pool
 
Everyone else
gawked at 
Eddie's
mega-ton penis
while I 
swam 
ten luxurious laps
invisibly
around 
your pool

The Problem I Have With These Flocking Authors

________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 
This slightly titled
book cover
describes 
a 
brilliant novel
requiring
a review
superior
to anything
Oliverio
could write 
 

 
This is the third 
novel 
written by 
a black author
I didn't know existed
until
six weeks ago
 
 would never 
be mistaken
for
Chester Himes,
James Baldwin,
:::
:::
:::
or
my
life-long
GodFather, 
 
May your dreams
be deferred
but 
I am keeping
my 
hyperlinking
to a bare 
minimum 
 
BUT
the title above
refers to a
"Problem"
I have 
with authors 
such as 
Mr. Cosby:
 
If 
anyone 
of any relevance
to Oliverio 
is anywhere
on our
350+
Spectrum Cable
Package,
Mrs. CarPeo
will 
definitely
know
where to find
him/her
 
But she's found
zero appearances
of 
S.A. Cosby
 _________
_____
 
My paranoia
is wearing
high-heel
sneakers
when I think
the reason for this
might have to do
with 
the 
worldwide media
being fearful
that appearances
by someone else
named 
COSBY
 
might be
Huxtabled
back 
into our
collective
consciousness
❗❗❗
