You're Never Alone On Your Birthday

He Sat Alone At The Bar 

Eating His Usual Breakfast Of Diced Ham & Scrambled Eggs

He Dipped Pan Con Mantequilla

Into His Cafe Con Leche

Watched The Oil From The Butter

Swirl In The Coffee

As He Casually Swiped 

Bread Crumbs Away

& Shooed Vistors

Utensils Clanking

Sometimes Caught His Attention

Reminding Him Of Wind Chimes

& How The Chimes  

Brought Luck

& The Knowledge That Winds Existed 

He Shakes His Head

& Kinda Laughs

Cause He's Sitting There

Having A Conversation

With Himself..

..AGAIN

He'd Look Over His Shoulder

Every Time Someone Walked In To The Eatery 

One Of Those Fans That's

Suppose To 

Keep Flies Out

Kicks In With It's

Loud Mechanic Whirly Sound

Like Its Letting People Know 

Its Doing Its Job

Only To Turn 

Right Back Around

To Find The Only 

Smartest Fly

That Got Past

The Big Gust Of Wind

Chillin' On His Coffee Saucer Plate

And He Says

It Must Be Your Birthday Too

You Fuckin' Fly

& The Fly Diabolically Rubs His Legs Together

As To Say

Yes

Yes It Is

So What Are We Gonna Get In To
And He Says
I Dont Know
But There's Gotta Be Music

Smurfette Is My Homegirl & Ash Park Wednesdays Is Tonight.!

I Heard The Smurf Rap Song By Gigalo Tony The Other Day

& It Was Stuck In My Head

Till I Busted My Face Placement

Don't Forget To Tune In To #AshParkWednesdays TONIGHT 8pm-10pm Pacific Standard Time

Taco Tuesdays,Ficheras & Some Corridos

Birds Chirping & A Small Dog Barking

With An Occasional 747 Landing At The Near By Airport 

Is The Soundtrack 

As I Sit Behind The Shades

In The Early Morning

Puffin' On A Blunt

Trying To Come Up With Some

Cleaver Shit To Write

I Am Reminded By A Random

Invite From A Friend

On Facebook

That It's 

Taco Tuesdays

And That I Have Too Make It Out

To The Event Cause

It's Like Ten Bucks

For A Bucket Of Tacos

Or A Basket Of Those Coronitas 

They Sell At Ones 

Favorite Fichera Bar

So Before I Walk On Out
In To The Cool Streets Of
Los Angeles
And Enjoy
Some Tacos
At Fichera Night
At A Local Bar

I'm Gonna Hit The
"Maybe" Button
Cause Taco Tuesday
Is An Everyday Thing
For Me

I Eat Tacos Just To Eat Tacos

But I've Never Sat With A Fichera
And Eaten Tacos
While Corridos
Are Bumpin' From Out The Juke Box
They Just Want Another
Little Beer.
..Maybe A Little Dance

Come Back To Me

People Ask Me About Bombilla On The Social Networks

In December 2010

In A Conversation With Eazy Uno

About Sitting Around

& Listening To All The Joints & Jams

Our Fathers Played

I Do That With My Own Son To This Very Day
