Hot day to wear tie.
Might as well be a silk noose--
Damn this "October".
Kick in the front door.
I stumble inside, collapse
at the A/C vent.
Breaking out the Shout!
Dress shirts with rings on collars.
Damp clothes, damp house, ugh.
Afternoon fatigue
Paralyzes, in cahoots
with narcotic heat.
Mr. Brown Coffee
Dream-can of freshness, zestness,
Lift up and heal me.
"The name's Brown, sucker.
Woe to he who doubts my fresh,
My zest. I save lives."
Night settles; hell ends.
Drive to Fiesta for foodstuffs
(Brown-cans by dozens).

Missed Connections: Gefilte Fish...and "Chain Connections"


Hector, you are fabulous.
The heat is killing me but I could never have been as clever as you. --Torie
Ahh! I always buy Mr. Brown at Diho Supermarket on bellaire and their are all these imitation Mr. Browns. Beware! Even though the others may be slimmer or more handsome in their three piece suits it has to be the real MR BROWN!
where can you purchase Mr. brown in Houston?
In most Fiestas, look in the Asian foods section. In any Asian supermarket in Chinatown, they should be easier to find. Also check out the sandwich shops up and down Bellaire...
I lurve Haiku's and Honku's!!!! Thank you (if at the DiHo, hit Lai Lai for the dumplings, you know, since you're there and all.
thanks hector, sorry for the double post.
