GUDIGAZ GO BOYS

Giddyup your giddiness go
global changes with a four speed
dual quad
posi-traction

browser. Shimmy-
surf. Rev.

Surfeit the top row, bro, go ghetto novelty.
A cruise ruse.
Nickel-n-stop-on-a-dime-it.
Chronometer’s go

ego chromatic and callipygian’s
one macho-moral

imperative.

SCHWEPPES

Funky Comadena big spins pop
medians and smarmy. Curb monikers
bonkers, pebbles, circular cargo
shticks and blasphemies akimbo.

Wah-wah pedal bipedal airborne
euphoria, crookedly a vocable.
Duct tape gripped shoe-goo
and bring it on, machismo machines.

Posers and hurters, shifty
manuals for Billabong billboards.
Radicals cut fat lines.

Bluster luster and smithy on the rack.
Never back but backwards.
Effluvia. No more bad town.

GUSTO

Schlemiels hoodoo hoodlumism.
Method country.
Humungous air. Think outside
a fun-funky-box.
Sixteen stitches later, whirligig
lapdogs hit up and on.
Rails, ponytail-townies.
Boondoggle malingerers,
wax a priori.
Asphalt basilica.
Aquafina.
Flip lacunas feel
loved.

Chicken of the Sea

a poem by Amanda Porter in the voice of her 6-year-old self

Pluck Pluck Pluck Pluck
chicken of the sea
Big wave Big Wave
you don't bother me

Na-na Na-na Na-na Na-na
Barnacle and seaweed
Na-na Na-na Na-na Na-na
Swim out to the buoys

Hurricane swell cold as hell
Flat rock Back talk
5-alive-o
twist & dive-o
Yelling at the ocean-
Chicken of the Sea
Big Wave Big Wave
you don't bother me.

Flotsam


Hawaii - To surfers its heaven, to visitors
its paradise, to chocolate its home
of Hawaiian vintage chocolate.

The warm Pacific trade winds
that create the legendary surf-
breaks at Pipeline
and Sunset Beach, caress
our cocoa plants to voluptuous
maturity.

Hawaiian
Vintage Chocolate is full
of nature's secret
functional enhancers
that help you challenge
life's 20-footers.

From JENNY HANIVER

Mark Lamoureux

I took my thin place beside Galaxian chortles,
taffy moebius, antique
disco balls pink-lipped girls
frying creatures of the sea.

Tiny twigs, portents
In a green campfire.
Artery of money stalled along a scenic route.

A hundred sleek boys
on a beach ringed by hairy dunes,
simple shapes, blue on green on white
on dark boules in the tiny white sand,

water cold as anything.

A gaze askew:
(Bought black trousers
from a drag queen)

O you gentle boys, throw
your piles & piles of beads
at the sun for me:
I miss my love, my eyes, my beautiful disaster.

An apple in my guts, phosphorous
of rotten logs glimmers
on the sea road,

underhanded wooden orbs
at skeeball rungs
ninety tickets to this

rubber ant
edible necklace
all the flat art in Ptown, heavy-ankled
beauties, cons, walleyed
cops at Old Orchard, Salisbury,
empty blinking, beeping miniature cars & horses
orbit your axes
O handjob in the funhouse,
corndog shrimp chip gyro
aura
flee from this Hanna-Barbera
ghost of empty beachblankets,

undead longing with smoke for hair,
bottlecaps for eyes Jenny Jenny
I want to give you all of this.
