Vincent Carotenuto

Drunken Sailor

gamble liberty.

port of new dork.

big flagships.

American bar.

ice cold burning.

railing leaners rant silent.

city gulls.

throats of pipe.

twitching gut hunger,

gut of hidden smooth

hollow muscle rope.

nerve juiced like blind glow wire.

hoy! you steamy oily

grime dirk silver fountain jerk,

you ass ass Horst Schmeling, 

Max Wessel

beer tender alongside,

light hip lug of a firefighter,

manfire drug,

New York tug welcome.
