On MC Hammer’s Birthday

After Frank O’Hara

 This morning went out to North Miami more

95 than I’d like in a day Eddie told me

he remembered the bike I was talking about

found the right mirrors streamlined deco things

to match her red and white paint job

later listening to “U Can’t Touch This”

we’ll wonder what the new Pope would say

about celibacy outside the church

we decide he wouldn’t

believe us Kelsie tells me

she spoke to her long-distance Boo

for two hours “That’s Wowza”

remembering he’s crossed the country twice

we love us

swooning on the beach yelling

boys’ names into the sea

and calling eyes scrambled eggs

I still believe in snail mail

but I can’t survive on stamp glue send me a picture

taken from your street I’ll step into it
