splat #16

descartes was sitting at the bus stop
scuzzy clothes all bummed in

long white beard
recognized him in an instant

holding court to no one
buses refused to stop

his shopping cart
filled over with garbage bags

thick with soda and beer cans
bottles of everykind

speaking of which
he held a brown-bagged bottle

in his left hand
he cleared his throat

as if to speak
and he did

lifted a toast and announced
to the world

poto, ergo sum
