NEWSPAPER BLACKOUT POEMS

to golf with obedient sons / in seersucker shorts / they're clean and good-looking / but they don't want advice / you make your score / happy to sit in your dad pants

Sometimes I don’t know if I’m writing these kinds of poems about my dad (an avid golfer), future-me (a golfer in remission), or a fictional character. Maybe a combination of all three?

In other news: you can now pre-order the book from Amazon for ten bucks. Ten bucks for 224 pages! That’s a bargain, folks.
