 dad had problems but he wasn't a bad guy he could stare at the refrigerator for hours even if there was no beer in it he went to work every day he was a systems engineer but i never saw him engineer a system or knew what a systems engineer was whatever he did it tired him out when junior or sis got arrested he would just nod and get up and open the refrigerator to offer the arresting officers a beer but there was hardly ever any beer in the refrigerator |

This is a pretty sad story. I mean, jeez. Sorry fellas! I just drank the last one.
Lovely site, great look, cool poems, thanks!
TC -
thank you very much. i see (from mariana's site) that you are mr tom clark, many of whose books i have read and enjoyed over the years. i particularly remember your novel "who is sylvia?" and the two little books on the merwin/naropa episode.
thanks again
'he was a systems engineer
