Not Quite Murder, Circa 1988 Poem by Bryan Corbett

Not Quite Murder, Circa 1988



an eight ball
sits on the bed
of a rundown motel room

my friend did
one too many lines
and stopped breathing

his body, blue
propped in the closet
he waits for me to call 911

and i will
in the morning
when the blow is gone

and when i, too, am gone

- circa 1988
