Venice Beach Poet’s MonumentVenice Beach Poet’s Monument

I am a man
who stands against the mountain
and thinks of pebbles – Frank T. Rios

Feel of rain in the face moonjuice/
partial to poets
the lady’s tears – Tony Scibella

the madmen can find other holes
to crawl into.
I used to walk that pier when I was 8 years old – Charles Bukowski

my mind is a radio
once I could sing
the play by play of Blonde on Blonde like it was Eddie Doucette weaving basketball free throw averages
with a handful of scars – Ellyn Maybe
