You have all you need
but you always want more
quit looking at everything you do not have
and look at everything you do have

Or rather, floating, I saw
The past and future simultaneously
As the cataclysmic explosion
Took place as now and what will be
Formed a white hot sphere of
Present up ending all guesses
Of what might be coming

One day a I got up and
Something told me to Hop
On a train and get out of
Town
It was a tanker car with struts
You could sit on
Apparently, other hoboes had the
Same idea and were running for
The trains as they began to pull out
It was quite a rush of men sitting
On the struts. I finally took the time
To look at who was sitting next to
Me as we slowly rumbled out of
Town. It was either Brad Pitt or a double.

I want to tell you
of all the times that
flaming bolts of love
struck me through
the heart. I lived
and remembered everything.

Being a teenager from Southern
Indiana and a fan of
Kurt Vonnegut
I somehow obtained some New York City
Phone numbers
Sure enough, there was his name,and
A number.
Taking a deep breath and exhaling,
I called the number and asked,
Is this Kurt Vonnegut?
He said yes, suddenly I was
Tongue tied and hung up.
