I ’d like just once

to peel back the heirloom kitchen; 

to be a conquistador riding a blinding shave-

smarter than an amateur of steel,

but the Actual played out in straight waves.

A man of action, for chrissake. 

As shown here, or here, snap, snap smiling,

 saying-

Gracias,los santos  mi amigos

por favor los lobos guapos.

Gimme a little sumpt’n, sumpt’n

that lays down flat

like a mountain on a map.
