Presumptuous ME Dedicates This Page To RENE MAGRITTE
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Because it made me
think of
 |
| © Photoverio #713.5 ** |
BUT
the reason
I describe me
as "presumptuous"
has to do
with the fact that
any alleged artist
who likens
himself/herself
to a genuine
is
—talent notwithstanding—
presumptuous
**
Actually,
it is
when a photograph
looks like a painting
but
please direct
your attention
to the comments below
if and only if
this page hasn't
bored you to death

I Am Genuinely Afraid To Hyperlink On This Page ...BUT

As a proud and pure
Italian-American,
let me go on record
as saying
that the criminal enterprise
associated with
my ethnicity
has been bumped
from the TOP TEN
criminal enterprises
on Planet Earth
If you think otherwise,
then Biggie Farma
loves you
💚
I photographed
the Milan Cathedral
in 2008
One million people
probably did the same thing
BUT
I am the only person
to use the word
"Photoverio"
across three blogs
and 7000 pages
In truth,
I take more pride in
"Photoverio"
than in my
spaghetti-spooning
ethnicity
because googling
that word
within quotation marks
would yield nothing but
the 7000 pages mentioned above
Unfortunately,
time changes things
and that suggested google
now shares space with
a photography site
based in
—of all places—
Milan

Based On An Illegitimate Word From ... NYTimes Spelling Bee
_________________________________________________________________________________________
This page is about someone
who never ever
could speak a single solitary
word of truth
It was originally written
during the first two weeks
of September
when I had to no choice
but to patronize
a SLEAZE BAR*
to watch
The 2023 US OPEN
played in
Flushing, NY
That is the town I grew up
knowing better than the back
of my pocket-picking hands
AND
I am publishing
Alibi Billie's page
in this god-forsaken
format
on the day after
my maternal Grandmother's
140th birthday
Had my alleged life
taken a drastic change
yesterday would also have been
the 38th anniversary
of being a married man
Please note:
This page is easy to follow
IF + ONLY IF
you know and love
the game of tennis
[or]
you know and love
Googling
*The asterik
relates to the provable fact
that Long Beach
is the Sleaze Bar
capital of the USA
It is also the national capital
of Alcoholics Anonymous
meetings

Alibilly
a/k/a Alibi Billy
was a hillbilly boy
from Kentucky
some called him lucky
cause he had
one big tooth
but when he spoke
not one word
was truth
YET
he could make you
laugh or cry
with every ALIBI
and here's why:
"I was conceived on the interstate
between chaos and confusion
The first word I spoke was "Illusion"
Mamma was named Spike
and Daddy was a Dilbert
Mamma never played tennis
but she loved BRAD GILBERT
Who done be he—might you ask—
but cre-8-ing answers
is my favor8 task
I have a sister named KOKO
who makes me laugh
cuz her chosen surname was GAFF
Cuter than apple pie
with one strawberry
she coulda been a song
written by Chuck Berry
The world loved her
before she ever had a lover
and every sporting magazine
put her on the cover
with her always holding
a tennis racket
...Don't knock it
cuz tennis a game with
a gazillion dollars
in its pocket
And Wimbey Done
is its heart and locket
But strawberries and cream
shattered KOKO'S dream
when she got de-feeted
in the first round
and that volume-N-us sound
of defeet could be heard in Heaven
where the Gods cried while munching
turkey burgers at the 7/11
But I gave comfort
to my sister Koko
with some pull and much pushing
"Don't worry Sis, [said me]
think of the meadow in Flushing."
New York, that is
and you will be
the opposite of bad
when you worship
at the throne of Uncle Brad
Gilbert, that is

Is HOODA HELAMI Being Autobiographical ... ???
________________________________________________________________________________________________
My mother hated all men
especially my father
with his Ph. D
in absenteeism
However,
there was always
one exception
I would first be reminded
how much he resembled
the wedding night
version
of my father
For exactly one month,
she rhapsodized the virtues
of the exception
in such a way
as to resurrect
her Poetry Degree
from the Sorbonne
That cremated remains
of that Degree
were in an urn
on the mantle
above the fireplace
we used for storing
extra rolls
of toilet paper
Exactly one month later,
the name of the exception
changed
but not the rhapsody
My favorite month
was December
because the exception
was informed
that a certain child
was allergic
to receiving
less than ten
Christmas gifts
and must include
a Schwinn bicycle
