a distance in his eyes
rolling one cigarette after another
rambling about the murder of cows
in Viet Nam
the tidy pile of butts
the steady flow of words
we listen
and move away later
to discuss
our knights armor
a suit of speaker tiles
we scream in the lobby
playing air guitar
looking at breasts

we cherished
and watched give birth

Gene ( as grandad delimited delight )
was such an elegant gentleman
his corduroys
his easy manner
and love of good scotch
painting bluebonnets
like a texas titian
the irrelevant stories
he would tell
of old cable cars through dallas
and the parties
of the wives of "oil barons"
where he'd make himself
larger
just to sell
the work
so he could retire to france
and paint
whatever
whenever
however he wanted to
never be a social metaph or
